# Mike Stylianou – Hypnotherapy, Counselling & Performance Coaching
Mike Stylianou is an experienced practitioner offering hypnotherapy, counselling, crisis intervention and performance coaching across London. With over 25 years in clinical practice, he works with children and adults across private practice, NHS settings and specialist hospital environments.
His expertise centres on paediatric procedural anxiety, staff wellbeing and critical event debriefing, developed through his role at Great Ormond Street Hospital for Children. He co-created the PEERS approach—a structured method for post-critical event support now used in healthcare settings.
Mike specialises in coaching healthcare professionals, including doctors and surgeons, through examination and interview preparation. He lectures at London South Bank University, training children's nurses and operating department practitioners in evidence-based psychological approaches.
His credentials include membership with the British Society of Clinical and Academic Hypnosis, the Health and Care Professions Council, and fellowship with the Royal Society of Arts. He co-founded POEMS For Children, a charity dedicated to training healthcare professionals in compassionate, scientifically-grounded child care.
What distinguishes Mike is his dual focus on clinical rigour and practical application. Rather than generic therapeutic services, he addresses specific professional needs—hospital staff anxieties, child procedural fears, and professional examination performance. His combination of NHS experience, university teaching, and charity leadership demonstrates commitment beyond individual client work. He offers both in-person consultations at his Balham clinic and online appointments via Skype, Zoom and WhatsApp.
