Rebecca Goldstein, TuneinTherapy, ADHD | Trauma | Autism
Registered Social Worker, RSW, MSW, MTA, BMT, FAMI
Impulsivity is often about far more than simply “making bad choices.” It can be connected to ADHD, trauma, emotional overwhelm, unmet needs, nervous system dysregulation, mood shifts, or struggling to pause before acting when emotions run high.
For many people, impulsive behaviors develop for a reason — as coping, stimulation, relief, or survival — even when they later create shame, regret, or consequences.
My approach is compassionate, practical, and focused on understanding what is driving the behavior beneath the surface. Together, we work on building self-awareness, emotional regulation, and realistic strategies that strengthen self-trust and help create more intentional choices without relying on shame.

Mind By Design®
Registered Psychotherapist, Psychology and Coaching Clinics
Impulse control disorder is another mental disorder that is an improperly used term in pop media as it is usual to have routines that make us better even though it would not distress us if we could not do them. ICD on the other hand is when these routines start to impact the sufferer’s life, they inhibit them from fully functioning daily. Thus, people with ICD can feel as though their impulses and behaviours are outside of their control and are somehow unnatural.

Licensed Mental Health Counsellor, MACP
Approach: CBT, DBT-informed emotion regulation, mindfulness and emotion-focused approaches.
I help clients identify the emotions, thoughts, situations, and triggers that precede impulsive behaviours. Therapy focuses on increasing the pause between urge and action, strengthening distress tolerance, developing alternative coping strategies, and understanding the underlying emotional needs.
