Impulse Control
Larry Nussbaum, LIFE JOURNEY CENTEER
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW, LSCSW, LISCW
Life experiences have "trained" us to act and react is certain ways. These are our impulses. Since most impulses are learned, most of them can be un-learned. It takes understanding and hard work but it can be done. Therapy can be a big part of this.

Impulse Control
XaHara A. MeGod
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LCPC, R-DMT, CPT
Struggles with impulse control—whether spending, eating, substances, or outbursts—often carry shame. I help you understand the feelings and body sensations underneath the urge, without judgment. Together, we build self-regulation skills, increase pause between impulse and action, and address underlying trauma or stress that may be driving the behavior.

Impulse Control
Gregor Nathanael Schwarz
Psychologist, Ph.D.
I specialize in treating impulse control disorders, offering a structured, evidence-based approach to help children and adults manage reactive behaviors and improve self-regulation. My expertise is supported by extensive post-doctoral training in a program dedicated to externalizing problems, which provides a deep understanding of the neurological and environmental factors driving impulsive actions. By integrating Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), I help clients identify the triggers of impulsive behavior, strengthen distress tolerance, and implement practical, intentional strategies to regain control and foster more adaptive decision-making.

Impulse Control
MindOverHealing Therapies
Hypnotherapist, CHt
Impulse Control Disorders, such as compulsive shopping, gambling, or hair-pulling, can be challenging to manage due to the powerful urges that drive these behaviors. Hypnotherapy offers a promising approach by helping individuals access underlying subconscious triggers and reprogram automatic responses. Through guided relaxation and suggestion, hypnotherapists work with clients to strengthen self-control, increase awareness of urges, and develop healthier coping mechanisms. This process can foster improved impulse regulation and reduce the frequency and intensity of impulsive behaviors, especially when used as part of a comprehensive treatment plan alongside behavioral therapies and medical support.

Overland Park is one of the most affluent suburbs in the Kansas City metro — anchored by a growing healthcare sector and a large concentration of financial services and technology firms — creating consistent demand for therapists working with corporate burnout, perfectionism, and the relationship pressures that come with high-achieving suburban family life. The city's predominantly White, upper-middle-class character coexists with a growing South Asian and East Asian professional population that adds cultural diversity to therapy demand. Johnson County Mental Health Center provides community mental health resources alongside a well-developed private therapy community concentrated in southern Overland Park. The city's suburban character and dispersed layout contribute to social isolation concerns that therapists increasingly encounter in their work.
