What Is The HPA Axis? - with Clinical Psychologist Dr Amber Johnston
Dr. Amber Johnston, Clinical Psychologist & Neuropsychologist, breaks down the brain’s alarm system— the HPA axis. This system releases hormones like adrenaline and cortisol to help the body react to potential threats, shaping how we process stress and danger.
With nearly two decades of experience in neuropsychology and mental health, Dr. Johnston specialises in trauma, neurological rehabilitation, and the mind-body connection. As the founder of Healthy Mind Psychology, she leads a team dedicated to helping individuals navigate emotional distress, neurological injuries, and chronic health conditions.
