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.
