The Becoming Her Blog

Welcome to the official blog of Aleshia Wisch — a space for women living with trichotillomania who are ready for real, nervous-system-based support.

This isn’t about willpower, quick fixes, or managing a hair-pulling disorder through awareness alone. It’s about nervous-system-first tools, practical regulation, and learning how to respond to urges without shame — guided by lived experience from someone who has lived with trichotillomania, not observed it from afar.

If you’re ready to feel safe in your body again and start living your life with clarity and confidence, this space was built for you.
