MindOverHealing Therapies
Hypnotherapist, CHt
Impulse Control Disorders, such as compulsive shopping, gambling, or hair-pulling, can be challenging to manage due to the powerful urges that drive these behaviors. Hypnotherapy offers a promising approach by helping individuals access underlying subconscious triggers and reprogram automatic responses. Through guided relaxation and suggestion, hypnotherapists work with clients to strengthen self-control, increase awareness of urges, and develop healthier coping mechanisms. This process can foster improved impulse regulation and reduce the frequency and intensity of impulsive behaviors, especially when used as part of a comprehensive treatment plan alongside behavioral therapies and medical support.

XaHara A. MeGod
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LCPC, R-DMT, CPT
Struggles with impulse control—whether spending, eating, substances, or outbursts—often carry shame. I help you understand the feelings and body sensations underneath the urge, without judgment. Together, we build self-regulation skills, increase pause between impulse and action, and address underlying trauma or stress that may be driving the behavior.

Kimberlee Zetocha Halverson
Psychologist, Ph.D, LP
I have extensive training and experience with behavior modification therapy. I start with learning what purpose or function the behaviors serve. Next, we explore if there is a healthier alternative, discover the root cause of the behavior, and/or focus on habit reduction and eventually elimination. I studied and researched self-control across my graduate training for children and adults.
