PROFILE:

An ex foster parent with a keen interest in parenting, Neomie Founded the Trichotillomania Support Forum in 1992 and started the Charizma recovery sites in 1996. Recovery has been a theme for her life!

Having personal experience of recovering from childhood sexual abuse, Neomie pioneered and formulated the Way Forward coaching program. In 1996, having been hair pulling and skin picking for 27 years, she knew a few other people with similar disorders and noted that most of them also had social anxiety. She realised that it was going to be hard for the medical profession to gain an understanding of these disorders, so she made a plan for pull freedom. By stopping pulling herself and journalling every moment of her journey to pull freedom, she devised a step-by-step plan which has ultimately evolved into our Trichnotherapy program. Following her recovery from cancer, Neomie has renewed optimism for life and enjoys motivating others to be the best they can be.

An advocate of ongoing education, recent courses include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT); biological psychologiy, Epigenetics,Transactional Analysis, Child Development, Cognitive Psychology, Urge Reduction and Relapse Prevention.
