Impulse Control Disorders
Nathan Kretzschmar
Registered Psychotherapist, RP
Struggling with impulses can create cycles of shame, regret, secrecy, or feeling out of control. Therapy can help you slow down the space between urge and action, understand what triggers certain behaviours, and build skills for emotional regulation and values-based decision-making. My approach is compassionate, practical, and focused on helping you regain a sense of choice.

Impulse Control Disorders
Watras Counselling and Psychotherapy Services
Registered Psychotherapist, RP, MACP, BSc
Impulses take many shapes and forms and oftentimes, can make an individual feel so powerless and frustrated with why they may feel or behave the way that they do. We may ask ourselves "why do I want to do this" or "why do I do this", and answering these questions is the first step in treatment. I take a proactive approach in creating a treatment protocol for clients with impulse control issues to aid them in alleviating the problematic behaviour(s).

Impulse Control Disorders
Doug Cochrane
Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW 831190
Sexual addiction is often referred to as a disorder of sexual compulsivity. Despite a person's best efforts to curb or stop sexual behaviours (usually in secrecy) they lack the internal control to refrain. This has been a growing field of addiction, especially with the advent of the internet and ease of access to pornography.

Impulse Control Disorders
Dr. Kim Edwards
Psychologist, C.Psych.
Body Focused Repetitive Behaviours (BFRBs) is a term used to describe a number of ongoing repetitive self-grooming behaviours (including hair-pulling - Trichotillomania, skin-picking – Excoriation Disorder/Dermatillomania, nail-biting, teeth-grinding) that can cause lots of distress (e.g., shame, isolation) and impairment (e.g., avoidance of social situations, missed school, pain, hair loss) despite efforts to try and stop these behaviours.BFRBs are not simple habits that are easy to just stop if one tries hard enough. Seeking a specialized therapist is often needed to learn management and coping skills.
BFRBs are thought to be more common than once believed, affecting at least 2-5% of the general population. Unfortunately, despite being widespread, few doctors are aware of how to effectively treat these disorders leaving many individuals and their families confused and frightened about where to begin. Fortunately, at MindFit, we have treatment experts that offer comprehensive assessments as well as specialized and effective treatments for BFRBs.
MindFit’s approach to treating BFRBs involves (generally) a 10 session weekly Habit Busters program based on the Comprehensive Behavioural (ComB) treatment for BFRBs and involved additional components including Habit Reversal Training (which includes awareness training, competing response training, and social support), stimulus control procedures (considering environmental changes that make it harder to pick, pull etc.), distress tolerance and mindfulness strategies, and cognitive behavioural therapy (which includes addressing maladaptive/unhelpful thoughts that may contribute to pulling as well as that may impact her sense of confidence). The program is followed by biweekly to monthly booster sessions to help maintain gains. Handouts are sent ahead of each session and participants graduate from the program with a toolbox of strategies to manage BFRBs.
