Abstract
En este trabajo se presenta el caso clínico de una
mujer de 21 años de edad que presenta trastorno
del control de los impulsos de tipo Tricotilomanía.
El objetivo planteado es doble: disminuir la
ansiedad y reducir la frecuencia del arrancamiento
del vello. Para ello se emplea una intervención
de tipo cognitivo-conductual. Los resultados
obtenidos, en un principio positivos debido
a que se produce un descenso de la conducta no
deseada, no permiten llegar a la conclusión de
que la intervención haya sido satisfactoria ya que
el abandono por parte de la cliente antes de su finalización
hace que no se pueda confirmar tal
hecho a lo largo del tiempo. A pesar del incremento
en el número de investigaciones sobre este
trastorno siguen existiendo muchas incógnitas
por resolver. Cuestiones relacionadas con factores
etiológicos, prevalencia, adhesión al tratamiento,
aportación de cada técnica, etc., necesitan de
más estudios que le den respuesta.
