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
MJB Wellness LLC
Hypnotherapist, Certified Hypnotherapist and Coach, Certified Sexological Bodyworker, Sex Educator, Certified Reiki
Impulse control is a big topic that encompasses many things such as binge eating, anger management issues, drug and alcohol abuse, self harm, anxiety, and much more. All are the result of emotional triggers that set off the behavior and often the client doesn't realize what initiates the negative response. The first thing is to uncover exactly what it is that triggers the problem behavior and then neutralize the trigger or provide a positive trigger in its place. Often, simply understanding what starts the unwanted response goes a long way towards change. This is, again, one of the bread and butter issues that hypnotherapists successfully deal with every day.c

Wilmington is a coastal North Carolina city that has grown significantly as a retirement destination, university community (UNC Wilmington), and—somewhat unexpectedly—a major film and television production hub, with Screen Gems Studios making Wilmington one of the East Coast's most active filming locations and earning it the nickname 'Wilmywood.' The mental health landscape reflects this mix: retiree adjustment and aging concerns, student well-being needs at UNCW, and the particular stresses of the creative and entertainment industry workforce. Hurricane Florence and other significant storms have left a legacy of disaster-related anxiety and trauma for coastal residents, and climate-related worry about storm intensity and sea level rise is a growing theme in local therapy practices. Common therapy concerns include hurricane trauma and climate anxiety, retiree adjustment, student mental health, creative industry stress, and the identity challenges of a city navigating rapid population growth and a changing economic character.
