Balancing Neurotransmitters to Resolve Anxiety & Depression
Anxiety and depression remain among the most prevalent and complex mental health conditions, often linked to dysregulation in key neurotransmitter systems both within the brain and gut. Central to their pathophysiology is the delicate balance of neurotransmitter systems that regulate mood, cognition, and stress response. This webinar explores the neurochemical foundations of mood disorders, emphasising the intricate interplay between serotonin, dopamine, norepinephrine, GABA, and glutamate and why many types of medication and conventional treatments are only addressing the symptoms and not the root causes. You will gain a deeper understanding of how imbalances within these systems manifest as clinical symptoms and how targeted functional medicine interventions can help restore equilibrium.
Join Dr Elisabeth Philipps for an in-depth and evidence-based exploration of:
- The current evidence on neurotransmitter pathways, receptor sensitivity, and neuroplasticity, highlighting how these mechanisms inform integrative treatment approaches.
- The role of the gut-brain axis and gut microbiome in brain health and pathophysiology.
- Practical strategies including optimising neurotransmitter function through nutritional support, and lifestyle modification.
Participants will leave with a clearer framework for assessing neurotransmitter imbalances; diagnostic precision and tailoring individualised treatment plans to enhance outcomes for patients with anxiety and depressive disorders and foster more sustainable mental health recovery.
