Impulse Control
Pamela Angel
Counselor/Therapist, LPC
I am passionate about helping clients break the "lightning strike" cycle of harmful urges and regain control of their lives. These often-misunderstood conditions—ranging from explosive anger to compulsive behaviors—can severely disrupt relationships, work, and legal standing.
I focus on this area because it is highly treatable through tailored, evidence-based approaches like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT). I find it deeply rewarding to help clients shift from spontaneous, regret-filled actions to thoughtful, self-regulated choices. By addressing the underlying triggers and fostering coping mechanisms, I help clients move from chaos to stability, transforming their energy into productive, purposeful living.
