Mike Gilbert
Hypnotherapist in London

I support people in recovering from chronic illness, fatigue, and stress-related conditions by helping them reconnect with the natural intelligence of their bodies.

My path into this work began with my own recovery from Long Covid and immune system dysfunction. That experience taught me—on a deeply personal level—just how profoundly our thoughts, emotions, and physical health are connected. It also ignited a lifelong interest in the neuroscience of change and the mind-body systems that support healing.

My approach focuses on teaching practical, science-based tools to regulate the nervous system and shift internal patterns that may be keeping you stuck. By engaging the brain's natural ability to change, we can calm the stress responses that underlie many chronic symptoms and replace them with patterns that support energy, clarity, and ease.

Whether you're feeling burnt out, stuck in cycles of exhaustion, or simply out of sync with your body, my role is to help you return to a state of balance—where healing becomes possible and life begins to feel spacious again.

This work is not just about symptom relief; it's about reclaiming your sense of agency, rebuilding trust in your body, and feeling empowered to live the life you're ready for.

Approach to Hypnotherapy & How I Work

My Approach to Recovery from Chronic Conditions

My work is rooted in the understanding that lasting change happens when your thoughts, feelings, and actions are aligned. Most approaches to healing focus on external actions—supplements, routines, or therapies. While valuable, they often overlook the internal patterns that may be holding you back.

As a Clinical Hypnotherapist and Lightning Process® Practitioner, I focus on the way you think—because your thoughts influence your emotions, your nervous system, and your body's ability to heal. Chronic stress and negative thinking can keep your system stuck in survival mode, contributing to fatigue, pain, and illness. But thanks to neuroplasticity, your brain can change—and with the right tools, so can your health.

Using the science-backed techniques of the Lightning Process® and Hypnotherapy, I help you rewire unhelpful patterns, shift your internal state, and restore the mind-body connection. Together, we work to switch off the pathways that contribute to illness and activate those that support regulation, resilience, and healing.

This process is practical, empowering, and deeply compassionate. If trauma or emotional blockages are stored in the body, we gently uncover and release them to clear the way for true recovery. The result is not just feeling better, but reconnecting with a sense of balance, ease, and the belief that you can be well again.
