Impulse Control
Kimberlee Zetocha Halverson
Psychologist, Ph.D, LP
I have extensive training and experience with behavior modification therapy. I start with learning what purpose or function the behaviors serve. Next, we explore if there is a healthier alternative, discover the root cause of the behavior, and/or focus on habit reduction and eventually elimination. I studied and researched self-control across my graduate training for children and adults.

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
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.

Impulse Control
Dr. Millie C. Astin
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Trichotillomania or compulsive hair pulling can be devastating. However, it's really just a bad habit that has formed. The good news is habits can be changed. Habit Reversal Training and Stimulus Control are behavioral approaches to help you spot triggers, times you are more likely to pull, use competing responses instead, and to create physical barriers so that it is more difficult to pull hair.
