Hypnotherapist, Certified Hypnotherapist and Coach, Certified Sexological Bodyworker, Sex Educator, Certified Reiki
Impulse control is a big topic that encompasses many things such as binge eating, anger management issues, drug and alcohol abuse, self harm, anxiety, and much more. All are the result of emotional triggers that set off the behavior and often the client doesn't realize what initiates the negative response. The first thing is to uncover exactly what it is that triggers the problem behavior and then neutralize the trigger or provide a positive trigger in its place. Often, simply understanding what starts the unwanted response goes a long way towards change. This is, again, one of the bread and butter issues that hypnotherapists successfully deal with every day.c

Dr. Keri Downs specializes in treating children, adolescents, and young adults with impulse control disorders. With over 15 years of experience, Dr. Downs utilizes a combination of evidence-based therapies to help clients manage their impulses and improve their overall functioning.

Dr. Rae Mazzei
Psychologist, PsyD
I specialize in helping adolescents and adults overcome impulse control difficulties that interfere with their relationships, health, work, and overall quality of life. Impulse control challenges can include compulsive behaviors, emotional reactivity, anger outbursts, problematic spending, gambling, binge eating, and other behaviors that feel difficult to stop despite negative consequences. Using evidence-based approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), mindfulness, and habit-reversal strategies, I help clients understand the underlying triggers driving these behaviors, strengthen self-regulation skills, and develop healthier ways of coping. My goal is to help clients gain greater control over their actions, make choices that align with their values, and create lasting positive change.
