Impulse Control
Dr. Matthew Clyde
Psychologist, PhD
Impulse control challenges can make life feel like a series of "act now, regret later" moments. Whether it involves shopping, gambling, hair pulling, or explosive outbursts, these behaviors often serve as a misguided attempt to soothe internal distress. Therapy provides a non-judgmental space to slow down the process between the urge and the action. We work on strengthening your "inhibitory muscles" and finding healthier ways to cope with the tension that drives impulsive acts.

Impulse Control
Dr. Stéphanie Gamache, PhD
Hypnotherapist, PhD
Impulse control difficulties often reflect internal conflict, unmet emotional needs, and patterns of self-regulation formed early in life. My work integrates psychoanalytic methods and hypnosis to explore the emotional meanings beneath impulsive behavior. Together, we develop greater awareness, agency, and emotional regulation.
