About the facilitator:
I'm Julie Mason and I live in Guelph. I have pulled my hair out compulsively for over half of my life and have been a BFRB peer supporter for over 10 years. I work as a mental health therapist in our community and I don't think having a BFRB means that there's anything wrong with us.

You're not alone.
