Mike Gilbert
Hypnotherapist in Brighton

Hi, I'm Mike Gilbert, and I believe that lasting change comes when we learn how to work with the mind, not against it.

So many of the struggles we face, whether it's anxiety, poor sleep, low confidence, or feeling stuck in unhelpful patterns, are rooted in how the mind and body communicate.

My passion is helping people retrain that system so you can step out of survival mode and into a calmer, more confident way of living.

I see hypnotherapy as a practical, empowering tool that allows you to reshape the way you think so that you can regulate your nervous system, let go of the weight of past experiences, and build a healthier, more compassionate relationship with yourself.

Approach to Hypnotherapy & How I Work

My Specialisms: NLP & Hypnotherapy Methods

Subconscious Repatterning: Using hypnotherapy techniques, we access and reshape the subconscious mind, helping you to heal and move on from past traumas and pain.

Neuro-Linguistic Programming: Trains you to harness the brain's ability to change, so that you can alter your response patterns, especially around stress, anxiety, and self-belief.

Mind-Body Regulation: By strengthening the feedback loop between mind and body, you learn to calm your nervous system and respond to life with more ease and resilience.

Practical, Sustainable Change: You develop new skills and learn how to engage in a different internal dialogue between our sessions, which ensures that your changes are meaningful and long-lasting.

After working with me, clients describe feeling lighter, more confident, and free from their issues:

"Working with Mike was absolutely life transforming. He helped me let go of old beliefs and fears. But most amazingly, he was able to transform a number of food intolerances that I had for over a decade! It's been absolutely liberating and incredible to be able to feel and eat "normal" again and has made my life so much easier! I can't thank Mike enough for all he's done for me, and all that in just a few sessions. I highly recommend Mike to anyone ready to make their life easier, lighter and happier - it will be the most amazing thing you have ever done for yourself - guaranteed!"

Sari G

"I turned to Mike for support after a prolonged period of stress, trauma and conflict left me struggling to cope with my day-to-day life. The journey he's taken me on has been truly transformative! In only a few months, I have been able to step down from the permanent state of 'fight or flight' that I had been occupying and into a sense of calm, happy, purpose. He's equipped me with amazing tools to help negotiate whatever challenges I am facing and I now feel reconnected with the happy, positive person at my core!"

Sue R

"I decided to work with Mike because I had lost my sense of purpose and was finding it hard to keep composed and deal with life's adversities. I knew things had to change but I had little motivation to do so. Through my sessions with Mike, I reconnected with my sense of purpose and learnt how to shift my feelings and perceptions in the moment. I quickly felt more proactive and comfortable in myself and found Mike to be super confident, experienced and a great listener with a brilliant ability to help me move past my limitations."

Rex F

"Working with Mike helped me peel back the layers of myself, to discover subconscious roots to my chronic dysregulation that led to my chronic illness. I don't know how I would have discovered these pieces, especially at the beginning, without his help. I gained a whole new understanding of myself and what was going on in my body, how to listen to what it needs and how to soothe my nervous system. With this piece of my health puzzle, I have been able to start living my life again, and I am just so grateful for that."
