About Michael
Michael Blown trains as a counsellor and hypnotherapist and works from the United Kingdom. He offers a calm, straightforward style for people facing stress, anxiety, grief, anger and mood difficulties. Michael uses listening and practical techniques to help people take small steps forward.
He sees each person as the expert on their own life and builds on existing strengths. Sessions focus on clear goals and simple tools that can be used between meetings.
Background and approach
Common topics include coping with life changes, relationship and intimacy concerns, self-esteem, addiction and LGBT issues. Michael also supports people managing trauma, panic and phobias, ADHD and aspects of mood disorders such as depression and bipolar. He has additional focus on areas like body image, fatherhood issues, domestic violence and compassion fatigue.
His approach is adaptable to the problem someone brings. Therapy combines client-centred conversation with practical techniques from cognitive behavioural therapy and hypnotherapy when appropriate. Michael aims for a respectful, steady pace so people feel understood and able to try new ways of coping.
He explains methods in simple terms and checks progress each session. Sessions are suitable for people who want direct feedback and everyday strategies. Michael encourages small, achievable changes and supports planning for the next steps.
He works in English and sees people in the United Kingdom.

Online support
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy or CBT looks at how thoughts, feelings and behaviours connect and teaches straightforward strategies to change unhelpful patterns. It is often useful for anxiety, panic, phobias, low mood and stress. Hypnotherapy uses guided relaxation and focused attention to help access different ways of thinking and may support issues like habit change, anxiety and some trauma-related symptoms.
Finding the right mix of methods is part of the work. The therapist will talk through options and agree a plan that fits the person's needs, goals and preferences. This is done collaboratively and reviewed as progress is made.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text messaging. Video works well for more in-depth conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Chat or messaging suits people who prefer written conversation or want flexible check-ins between appointments. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and day-to-day life.
