Impulse Control
Christine Highfill
Licensed Professional Counselor, LCPC-S
Impulse control challenges—such as difficulty resisting urges to steal, gamble, or lash out—can leave you feeling frustrated, ashamed, or out of control. These behaviors often develop as a way of coping with stress, strong emotions, or unmet needs, but they can disrupt relationships, work, and self-esteem. In therapy, I provide a safe, non-judgmental space to better understand your triggers, build healthier coping strategies, and strengthen your ability to pause before reacting. Together, we’ll work on reducing harmful patterns, developing emotional regulation skills, and creating a greater sense of balance and self-control in your daily life.
