The Brain's Chemical Symphony: Understanding Neurotransmitters with Dr. Dawn-Elise Snipes

Our emotions are what we label as emotions, are triggered by neurochemicals. Like I always make the analogy of a good marinara sauce. So we want to pay attention to what's going on...
Ever wondered what really goes on in your brain to make you feel happy, sad, or stressed? In this episode of the 'Counselor Toolbox Podcast', Dr. Dawn-Elise Snipes dives deep into the world of neurobiology to explain the roles of six crucial neurotransmitters: dopamine, GABA, serotonin, acetylcholine, norepinephrine, and glutamate. These chemical messengers are like the conductors of our emotional orchestra, influencing everything from mood to motivation. Dr.
Snipes breaks down how each neurotransmitter works, what happens when there's too much or too little of them, and how they impact our mental health. But that's not all – she also sheds light on how prescription drugs and hormones can alter neurotransmitter levels and discusses non-drug methods to keep these chemicals in balance.
Whether you're a mental health professional or just curious about what makes your brain tick, this episode is packed with valuable insights that could change the way you think about your emotions.
