Impulse Control
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.

Lexington sits at the center of Kentucky's Bluegrass region with a character distinct from Louisville — the University of Kentucky drives a significant student and young professional population alongside a traditional agricultural and equestrian community. The city's proximity to Appalachia means therapists frequently encounter the mental health effects of the region's opioid crisis, intergenerational poverty, and community grief tied to economic decline. UK HealthCare — the University of Kentucky's academic medical system — provides institutional mental health resources, with private practices concentrated in Chevy Chase, Beaumont, and Hamburg Pavilion. Lexington's horse industry also supports a niche clientele of equestrian athletes and industry professionals navigating performance pressure and career identity.
