Impulse Control Disorders

Empowered Wellbeing, Trauma/Complex Trauma (CPTSD), Dissociation and Addiction Recovery Care

Life Coach, view my credentials online at: www.recoveringfromwithin.com/credentialslongform
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.

As a matter of environmental conditioning, our daily interactions are conditioning us to respond to life based on impulse. Its no wonder that people struggle with impulse control disorders. At Growth and Change Counseling we collaborate with you to empower you to reclaim your decision making process, slow down decisions and responses, and increase frustration tolerance. This counteracts the compulsive needs of many for immediate gratification.

Impulse Control Disorders

Heidi Hartston

Psychologist, PhD
I can help you get control over impulsive behaviors like overspending, emotional outbursts, risky decisions and high-reactivity. These patterns can create real problems in relationships and work, and can be difficult to stop on your own. Therapy focuses on recognizing triggers, calming nervous system reactivity, and using practical strategies to pause and make deliberate choices. I combine insightful, caring depth work with evidence based techniques that effectively free you from old patterns, and help you to reclaim the balanced, happy life you deserve.

18 Years Experience
In-Person Near Pasadena, CA
Online in Pasadena, CA
Pasadena is home to Caltech and the Huntington Hospital, and the city's intellectual, academic culture creates demand for therapists experienced in working with high-achievers navigating perfectionism, burnout, and the psychological demands of elite academic and scientific environments. The city's established residential character and proximity to Los Angeles give it a distinct therapy landscape — less entertainment-focused than West Hollywood, more oriented toward depth work, relationships, and long-term growth. Pasadena also has a significant older adult population, with therapists specializing in aging, life review, and elder family dynamics well represented. Many practices serve clients drawn from across the San Gabriel Valley and Foothill communities.
