Impulse Control
Erin Ibrahim
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, RP(Q)
Impulse control struggles often leave people cycling between the urge to act, a brief moment of relief, and a longer wave of shame that keeps the pattern going. In Ajax, Pickering, and across Durham Region, I work with teens and adults around impulsive behaviours linked to anger, self harm urges, spending, screen use, and other patterns that have felt hard to interrupt. Using DBT, CBT, ACT, and non pathologizing approaches, we build awareness of the triggers underneath, grow your window of pause, and address the needs the behaviours have been trying to meet.

Impulse control is a base step in my arsenal of therapies. Behavior modification can be done on a minor scale or on a major scale that has many levels and effects. Let me help you to correct what you feel needs to be addressed.

Impulse Control
Selah Counselling, Mediation, and Training Center
Registered Social Worker, BSW, MSW, RSW
If you struggle with impulse control, you may find yourself acting quickly in ways you later regret. Whether it is spending, gambling, explosive reactions, sexual behaviours, or other urges, the pull can feel intense and immediate. You may promise yourself it will not happen again, only to feel caught in the same cycle. Over time, this can lead to shame, damaged relationships, and a loss of confidence in your own self-control.
At Selah Counselling, we approach impulse control disorders with compassion and structure. Impulsivity is often connected to nervous system dysregulation, unmet emotional needs, trauma, or difficulty tolerating distress. Together, we work to slow the cycle down. We strengthen awareness of triggers, build distress tolerance skills, and develop practical strategies that increase pause and choice. Our goal is not simply to stop behaviours, but to help you understand what is driving them and to build the internal steadiness that supports lasting change. You can learn to respond intentionally rather than impulsively.
