Is it normal for an adult to be told to discipline themselves for certain things?

stressed out

My girlfriend of 4 years has recently "stumbled" upon a website that has mentors for such thing as disciplining herself with a clothes hanger, belt or whatever that will cause pain. She claims it's because her "mentor" says it's to help her keep on track with schooling, eating and whatever else the problem maybe. I've talked to 2 counselors about this and would like anyone else's opinion on this because they say it is not normal and she needs help because she used to be a cutter and now this and it's a form of "self mutilating" What do any of you think about this? She's not into bondage or anything like that just so that is known. Please no rude answers as this is asking for help not rude comments or ignorant people.
