It can be distressing feeling as though you cannot control certain impulses and behaviours. And I understand the negative consequences these disorders can have in a person’s life. I can help you learn strategies to manage these impulses to improve your quality of life.

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.
I have had experience with individuals across lifespans who have had impulsive control disorders. I have been working with children with learning disabilities and executive functioning issues. I have helped facilitate strategies in school and home environments.
