Carolyne Mburu-Gerena
Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner, PMHNP-BC
Impulse control difficulties can lead to behaviors that feel hard to stop despite negative consequences. These may include compulsive behaviors, difficulty regulating urges, or challenges with emotional control. Treatment focuses on improving awareness of triggers, strengthening coping skills, and utilizing medication management when appropriate to support greater emotional regulation.

Dr. Stéphanie Gamache, PhD
Hypnotherapist, PhD
Impulse control difficulties often reflect internal conflict, unmet emotional needs, and patterns of self-regulation formed early in life. My work integrates psychoanalytic methods and hypnosis to explore the emotional meanings beneath impulsive behavior. Together, we develop greater awareness, agency, and emotional regulation.

Carrie Gauthier
Hypnotherapist, Certified Clinical Hypnotherapist, CCHt
We look under the hood with hypnosis to arrive at the maladaptive beliefs and emotions associated with your specific impusle control issues. Then we safely process and clear them, and rewire with the healthier options. We can use a combination of hypnosis, NLP, EMT, Gestalt, regression, tapping, breathwork and more. With hypnosis, we literally reinstall new hardware. We hard-wire your brain to make new choices proactively and it becomes effortless, automatic and intuitive to not act impulsivley. With this protocol, you will become focused, discliplined and able to clearly see what is important in life. You will circumvent distraction. You will develop structure and routine and reward yourself when you've made the choice that supports your new goals. You will find yourself organized and prepared, and lovingly notice how judicious you are about time management.
