Impulse Control
Clear Path Counseling and Wellness Center
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA. LPC
Brad provides trauma-informed therapy for impulse control disorders, compulsive behaviors, emotional reactivity, and difficulty managing urges that interfere with relationships, work performance, decision-making, or overall quality of life. Many high-functioning and high-achieving individuals struggle privately with impulsive behaviors, emotional overwhelm, compulsive habits, anger, risk-taking, or difficulty slowing down and feeling in control of their reactions.
These patterns are often not simply about “lack of discipline” or willpower. Impulse control difficulties are commonly connected to unresolved trauma, chronic stress, anxiety, emotional dysregulation, attachment wounds, or nervous system patterns developed over time. Many clients find themselves repeating behaviors they intellectually understand but emotionally feel unable to stop.
Brad takes a holistic and trauma-focused approach to impulse control therapy, helping clients identify and address the deeper emotional and psychological factors contributing to impulsive patterns. Therapy focuses on increasing emotional awareness, strengthening self-regulation, reducing reactivity, and creating healthier ways of responding to stress, emotions, and interpersonal challenges.
As an experienced trauma therapist and EMDR therapist, Brad integrates EMDR therapy (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), trauma-informed counseling, emotional regulation strategies, mindfulness-based techniques, and holistic therapeutic approaches to support lasting change. Treatment is designed to help clients process unresolved emotional experiences, improve executive functioning and emotional control, and develop healthier coping strategies that support both personal and professional success.
Brad works collaboratively with clients to create a personalized treatment plan based on their unique experiences, goals, and lifestyle demands. Therapy provides a supportive, confidential, and non-judgmental environment where clients can better understand the root causes of impulsive behavior while developing practical tools for lasting emotional balance and behavioral change.
Many successful individuals appear composed externally while internally struggling with stress, pressure, compulsive patterns, or emotional overwhelm. Brad’s approach helps clients move beyond short-term coping patterns and create meaningful, sustainable improvements in emotional health, relationships, confidence, and overall functioning.
The goal of therapy is not only symptom management, but helping clients gain greater clarity, emotional stability, self-control, and fulfillment so they can live and perform at their highest level with greater peace, confidence, and authenticity.
Virtual counseling and online EMDR therapy sessions are available, providing confidential and convenient access to specialized trauma-focused therapy from the comfort and privacy of home.

Impulse Control
Dr. Rae Mazzei
Psychologist, PsyD
I specialize in helping adolescents and adults overcome impulse control difficulties that interfere with their relationships, health, work, and overall quality of life. Impulse control challenges can include compulsive behaviors, emotional reactivity, anger outbursts, problematic spending, gambling, binge eating, and other behaviors that feel difficult to stop despite negative consequences. Using evidence-based approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), mindfulness, and habit-reversal strategies, I help clients understand the underlying triggers driving these behaviors, strengthen self-regulation skills, and develop healthier ways of coping. My goal is to help clients gain greater control over their actions, make choices that align with their values, and create lasting positive change.

Impulse Control
Grace in the Shadows
Licensed Professional Counselor, PhD, MDiv, MA, NCMHC, ALMHC, VALMHC, SCMHC, FLMHC, KYMHC, IDMHC
I address impulse control disorders by integrating psychological expertise with Christian principles to guide individuals toward healthier behaviors and spiritual growth. Recognizing the challenges associated with impulse control, I incorporate biblical teachings on self-control, discipline, and reliance on God's strength. The therapeutic process involves exploring the root causes of impulsive behaviors, understanding triggers, and developing coping mechanisms in alignment with Christian values. I encourage prayer, scriptural reflection, and reliance on faith as tools for managing impulses. Collaborating with clients to establish a balance between psychological strategies and spiritual resources, I aim to empower individuals to exercise self-discipline and make choices that align with their Christian beliefs. This integrated approach seeks to promote personal growth, emotional well-being, and a deeper connection with one's faith in overcoming impulse control disorders.

Impulse Control
Dina Hijazi
Psychologist, PhD, CSAT
Difficulty managing impulses can lead to patterns that feel overwhelming or out of control—whether it's outbursts, compulsive behaviors, or risky actions. In therapy, I help clients explore the underlying emotional and neurological factors contributing to these behaviors, while building practical tools for self-regulation and awareness. Using evidence-based methods such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), mindfulness, and emotion regulation strategies, we work to strengthen impulse control, reduce distress, and foster more intentional, balanced decision-making.
