Impulse Control
Lia Khalili
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist (RP)
At Bright Start Bright Future Counselling Centre, we look past surface-level behaviors to treat the underlying neurodevelopmental and emotional roots of impulsivity, hyperactive behaviors, and poor self-regulation. Drawing on over 20 years of clinical experience specializing in neurodivergence, I provide a compassionate, multi-modal framework to help children, teens, and adults strengthen their impulse control, master self-regulation, and regain focus.
For children and youth, impulse control challenges frequently present as intense emotional outbursts, physical restlessness, difficulty waiting turns, or acting before thinking—behaviors deeply intertwined with ADHD or executive dysfunction. In our clinic, we target this from both a cognitive and therapeutic lens. We integrate Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills with CleverQuest™ Cognitive Training, a specialized play-based program I developed to physically retrain the brain systems responsible for attention, working memory, and cognitive control.
Through individual sessions and supportive parent coaching, we equip families with practical, everyday de-escalation strategies and coping skills that transform impulsive patterns into intentional, calm decisions. Whether your child is facing behavioral challenges at school or you are an adult struggling to manage focus and emotional reactivity, contact me today for a free 15-minute consultation.

Impulse Control
Mind By Design®
Registered Psychotherapist, Psychology and Coaching Clinics
Impulse control disorder is another mental disorder that is an improperly used term in pop media as it is usual to have routines that make us better even though it would not distress us if we could not do them. ICD on the other hand is when these routines start to impact the sufferer’s life, they inhibit them from fully functioning daily. Thus, people with ICD can feel as though their impulses and behaviours are outside of their control and are somehow unnatural.
