Impulse Control
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.

Impulse Control
Andrea Miller
Counselor/Therapist, NCC
In my therapeutic approach to treating impulse control disorders, I often incorporate elements of Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) to help clients develop emotion regulation skills and effective coping strategies when faced with urges or impulses. Additionally, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) techniques assist clients in identifying triggers and distorted thinking patterns that contribute to impulsive behaviors, allowing for the implementation of healthier alternatives and improved self-control. Drawing from Solution-Focused Brief Therapy, I collaborate with clients to set specific, attainable goals and explore practical solutions to manage their impulses, fostering a sense of empowerment and progress in their recovery journey.

Norfolk is home to Naval Station Norfolk — the world's largest naval base — and sits at the center of the Hampton Roads military metro, with a therapy community substantially defined by the needs of active-duty service members, veterans, and military families navigating deployment stress, PTSD, and the challenges of military life. The city's large African American population and history of racial inequity create consistent demand for culturally affirming therapists who work with racial trauma, community resilience, and intergenerational family dynamics. Sentara Norfolk General Hospital and the Hampton VA Medical Center provide major institutional mental health anchors for the region. Old Dominion University, which absorbed Eastern Virginia Medical School in 2024, maintains clinical training programs that feed practitioners into the broader Norfolk therapy community.
