Impulse Control
Dr. Stéphanie Gamache, PhD
Hypnotherapist, PhD
Impulse control difficulties often reflect internal conflict, unmet emotional needs, and patterns of self-regulation formed early in life. My work integrates psychoanalytic methods and hypnosis to explore the emotional meanings beneath impulsive behavior. Together, we develop greater awareness, agency, and emotional regulation.

Impulse Control
Carrie Gauthier
Hypnotherapist, Certified Clinical Hypnotherapist, CCHt
We look under the hood with hypnosis to arrive at the maladaptive beliefs and emotions associated with your specific impusle control issues. Then we safely process and clear them, and rewire with the healthier options. We can use a combination of hypnosis, NLP, EMT, Gestalt, regression, tapping, breathwork and more. With hypnosis, we literally reinstall new hardware. We hard-wire your brain to make new choices proactively and it becomes effortless, automatic and intuitive to not act impulsivley. With this protocol, you will become focused, discliplined and able to clearly see what is important in life. You will circumvent distraction. You will develop structure and routine and reward yourself when you've made the choice that supports your new goals. You will find yourself organized and prepared, and lovingly notice how judicious you are about time management.

Columbus, Georgia is home to Fort Benning — one of the US Army's largest installations and the home of the Army Infantry — creating a therapy community substantially shaped by the needs of soldiers, veterans, and military families dealing with combat trauma, moral injury, PTSD, and the emotional complexity of service life. The city's African American population comprises the largest share of the civilian community, and culturally affirming therapists who work with racial identity and intergenerational resilience alongside the predominantly military therapy demand are an important part of the local landscape. Martin Army Community Hospital serves the military population, while Piedmont Columbus Regional provides civilian institutional mental health resources. Columbus shares some of its therapy ecosystem with Phenix City, Alabama directly across the Chattahoochee River, giving the metro a bi-state character.
