Impulse Control
Sanofer Ansari
Licensed Mental Health Counsellor, MACP
Approach: CBT, DBT-informed emotion regulation, mindfulness and emotion-focused approaches.
I help clients identify the emotions, thoughts, situations, and triggers that precede impulsive behaviours. Therapy focuses on increasing the pause between urge and action, strengthening distress tolerance, developing alternative coping strategies, and understanding the underlying emotional needs.

Impulse Control
Marjan Emami
Counsellor/Therapist, MD, RTC #3608, MPCC-Provisional #4797, ACTA #3122
Impulse control disorders often stem from trauma, unmet needs, or difficulties with emotional regulation. In therapy, I provide a safe, supportive space for clients to explore impulses without judgment. Through co-regulation and expanding the window of tolerance, impulses gradually soften, helping clients experience them without acting on them and develop greater self-awareness and control.

Impulse Control
Havenwood Psychotherapy
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist
When emotions become intense, it can feel difficult to pause before reacting. Impulsive behaviours can create problems in relationships, work, finances, or other areas of life and may leave you feeling frustrated or ashamed afterward.
Taylor offers a non-judgmental space to explore the emotions, triggers, and protective patterns that can contribute to impulsive behaviour. Therapy can help you build greater awareness and develop practical strategies for responding with more choice and intention.

Impulse Control
Bill Arbuckle
Therapist, MCP, RCC
When behaviour keeps happening in ways you don't fully understand or want, it's easy to land on "I just need more willpower." But impulse control struggles are rarely about effort. They're usually about unmet needs, unprocessed experiences, or a nervous system that learned to cope in ways that made sense once and now cause problems. I work with people to understand the why underneath the pattern, not just manage the behaviour on the surface.
