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.

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).

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.

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.
