Eagle and Boise Counseling

Many people are confused when trying to describe their symptoms of depression and anxiety. The reason for the confusion is how similar the symptoms are between depression and anxiety. However, although similar in symptoms, depression and anxiety disorders are not the same. The symptoms that are similar are caused by Neurotransmitters in your brain.

Neurotransmitters cause symptoms of depression, emotions of hopelessness, despair and anger.  Your mind tries to figure out what is wrong and oftentimes you will find yourself feeling more confused and out of sync. It can be difficult to break free from a pattern of negative self-talk, isolation and confusion. I can help free you of these feelings and help you move toward a life that you feel is meaningful and connected.
