Impulse Control
Andrea Miller
Counselor/Therapist, NCC
In my therapeutic approach to treating impulse control disorders, I often incorporate elements of Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) to help clients develop emotion regulation skills and effective coping strategies when faced with urges or impulses. Additionally, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) techniques assist clients in identifying triggers and distorted thinking patterns that contribute to impulsive behaviors, allowing for the implementation of healthier alternatives and improved self-control. Drawing from Solution-Focused Brief Therapy, I collaborate with clients to set specific, attainable goals and explore practical solutions to manage their impulses, fostering a sense of empowerment and progress in their recovery journey.

Impulse Control
Christine Highfill
Licensed Professional Counselor, LCPC-S
Impulse control challenges—such as difficulty resisting urges to steal, gamble, or lash out—can leave you feeling frustrated, ashamed, or out of control. These behaviors often develop as a way of coping with stress, strong emotions, or unmet needs, but they can disrupt relationships, work, and self-esteem. In therapy, I provide a safe, non-judgmental space to better understand your triggers, build healthier coping strategies, and strengthen your ability to pause before reacting. Together, we’ll work on reducing harmful patterns, developing emotional regulation skills, and creating a greater sense of balance and self-control in your daily life.

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.
