Similar to EDs if the basis is CPTSD we can apply a parts/systems approach. If its more unclear in terms of the origin, we might apply a more functional and integrative approach, for example applying distance TCM (Traditional Chinese Medicine) support. We also encourage peer group adjunct support if the behavior is compulsive. Please also refer to the ED section for more examples of how this might apply to more process based compulsions.

Dallas, Texas therapist: Phillip McCulley, marriage and family therapist
Impulse Control

Phillip McCulley

Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT, CSAT
I work with individuals and couples who are struggling with impulse control and behaviors that feel difficult to manage or stop. This may include addictive patterns, out of control sexual behavior, impulsive decision making, or actions that repeatedly create problems in relationships, work, or self trust. These behaviors are often connected to emotional regulation, stress, trauma, or unmet needs rather than a lack of willpower. In therapy, we focus on understanding what drives impulsive behavior and how it functions in your life. Together, we work to slow things down, increase awareness, and develop practical strategies for managing urges and emotions before they lead to actions you later regret. This includes building stronger coping skills, improving emotional regulation, and identifying situations that increase risk. When impulsivity impacts a relationship, I also help couples address breaches of trust, communication breakdowns, and ongoing cycles of conflict. The goal is not perfection or control, but greater consistency, accountability, and the ability to make choices that align with your values and long term wellbeing.

Difficulty with impulse control often reflects a struggle to tolerate certain emotional states in the moment.
