When I used to bite my nails my mum threatened me with that stuff you paint on nails that tastes like SHIT. She didn't need to carry out the threat, the thought of it was enough. Treat it as misbehaviour rather than a disorder. It puts it in perspective for her, and presents her with a simple choice rather than bottling her up with inauspicious medication and making her think she has a 'problem'.
