Impulse Control
Wellspring Healing and Therapy
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, CMHC, LCSW
We understand impulsive behaviors as signals from parts seeking relief, stimulation, or escape. Through curiosity and compassion, we help you slow down these patterns and understand what they are protecting. Our approach supports increased choice, regulation, and confidence in responding rather than reacting.

Impulse Control
Danielle Thurman (Roots and Wings Family Therapy)
Marriage and Family Therapist, Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist
Impulse control disorders often feel like being hijacked by an internal force—a sudden urge that overrides your better judgment, leaving behind shame or frustration. As a therapist trained in both Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) and Internal Family Systems (IFS), I offer a compassionate, non-pathologizing approach to help you regain inner harmony.
Instead of simply fighting your impulses, we work together to understand them.
Using IFS: We identify the "part" of you that drives the impulsive behavior—often a protective "Firefighter" part trying to soothe intense, hidden pain. By befriending this part, we can understand its positive intention, reduce its extreme reactivity, and heal the underlying "exile" it is protecting.
Using EFT: We tune into the immediate bodily sensations and primary emotions (like fear, sadness, or shame) that trigger your actions. We create a safe space to process these emotions, allowing you to move from reactive patterns to responsive, self-compassionate choices.
Together, we will shift from "What is wrong with me?" to "What is this part trying to do for me?" and foster a calm, confident "Self" that leads your internal system.

Impulse Control
Gregor Nathanael Schwarz
Psychologist, Ph.D.
I specialize in treating impulse control disorders, offering a structured, evidence-based approach to help children and adults manage reactive behaviors and improve self-regulation. My expertise is supported by extensive post-doctoral training in a program dedicated to externalizing problems, which provides a deep understanding of the neurological and environmental factors driving impulsive actions. By integrating Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), I help clients identify the triggers of impulsive behavior, strengthen distress tolerance, and implement practical, intentional strategies to regain control and foster more adaptive decision-making.

Impulse Control
Dr. Alishia Kalos
Psychologist, PsyD, CST
Dr. Kalos specializes in working with individuals who experience sexual behaviors as impulsive, compulsive, or difficult to control. Treatment may address pornography use, masturbation, sexual encounters, online sexual behavior, or other behaviors that feel inconsistent with a person’s values or goals. Therapy focuses on understanding the factors that contribute to these patterns, identifying triggers, developing greater self-awareness and behavioral control, and addressing the impact these behaviors may have on relationships, sexuality, and overall well-being.
