After my first session with Michael and I have more understanding on my circumstances. I had been seeing another counsellor and they just did not 'get it', it was a venting session more than anything but with Michael, he gave me insight, direction and tools to help me move forward. Michael is amazing, don't wait, just do it. :) More...

I found Michael to be positive, inspiring and very easy to talk to. Within 1 session i had understood why i have my phobia and Michael was able to give me the tools that i needed to begin to overcome it. He also helped me to realise what i have been doing wrong when looking for a life partner and to change what i am looking for. i would highly recommend Michael for counselling and hypnotherapy.

5 stars to Michael because he was amazing.... I appreciated having someone to talk to, who made no judgement and totally engaged in my concerns. He allowed me to see things a little clearer. We can all get caught up in our own thoughts and Michael's kindness shone a light into my dark room. Really hard to rationalize your thoughts by yourself/alone. If you are looking for someone to assist you to guide your thoughts, I highly recommend Michael at Aspire. More...

Our marriage was put on the rocks after a silly decision made by myself. If it wasn't for Michael putting me in the right direction on how to repair what I had broken I would be facing a divorce. I would love to say with great appreciation that Michael's methods are amazing and I know 100% if I can hang in and complete the process that I will not only be a better person and resolve my long term issues which is why I'm here in the first place that I will get my soul mate (wife,best friend and my only love) and our kids back.. and my marriage will be saved... any issues that rise that you can't fix yourself please do not hesitate to contact Michael as I can 100% say he will fix your issues...!!

I hope people take the time tread this.
To see a hypnosis therapist was out of the box for me.I had been to two different therapist and they I feel like hadn't helped me in any way .
After one session with Michael that ass of a negative voice in my head has gone . It is more than amazing to me as it's been there for years telling me I'm worthless and there for the negatives in all situations,so to have it suddenly vanish is amazing and it's been a month and It hasn't returned.
I decided to have a session with Michael on relationships also as I had ended a relationship with my fiance.And I could not understand myself why it ended and no it wasn't because of the little voice, hahaha.
Anyway I left feeling stronger and understanding .. Thanks Micheal

Matthew Worsley
I smoked a pack of cigarettes a day from 17 till I was 42. I tried patches, nicotine chewing gum none of them worked for me, I started a course of nicotine lozenges 4mg and they were great. Problem for me was I used them as a replacement rather than weaning myself off over 12 weeks. I’m now 55 and still using up to 8 per day. I’ve been wanting to give hypnotherapy a go, and have spoken to people who’ve had success with it. I have to admit that I was sceptical about whether it would work for me. I did one session with Michael and to my surprise I haven’t had a lozenger in 7 days. It’s hard to explain but when ever my brain prompts me to think about a lozenger something in my mind blocks the thought. More...

Michael was informative, non-judgemental and listened without trying to cut you off and have his say. The "steps" he gives to try really worked (providing your partner is willing to try it to) - simple, effective and not complicated.

My first hypnotherapy session with Michael Brook was fantastic. The imagery made it work walking through a path in the rainforest looking up at the trees. As well as looking up at ice capped mountains made made me think of my drive through Switzerland looking up at the mountains there. Very relaxing. I look forward to my next session. Yes I've had hypnotherapy before with an excellent hypnotherapist and Michael was just as good. More...

I have suffered from Panic and Anxiety disorder for over 30 years. To be honest when you have this condition you like to be in control of everything which I why I never considered Hypnosis. I relented and decided what do I have to loose?. Do I continue the pharmaceutical path or do I try something more healthy and sustainable. To understand why this review is important you need to understand the severity. I like to be a recluse, no shopping centers, no concerts, just no going out in general unless i absolutely had to. Everything had to planned days in advance just to get ready for any upcoming event. Now to Michael - He was warm and inviting but also saw straight through my skepticism. I was scared, nervous and yep anxious to the point of panic. What I can safely say now is that after one session (YES THATS ALL IT TOOK) I look forward to going out and I am eerily calm about it. I'm now more involved with family than I ever have been. If I knew this would work I would have done it long ago. I have not taken any medication since this session (under doctors instruction of course) and I feel great. Thank you so much for giving me back a life where I am participating in it and not just existing. More...

I booked a session with Michael because I having problems with my defacto partner. We had a bit of a dead bedroom and I really wanted to sort it out and get our relationship back where there was lots of loving and caring and passion. In just one session Michael helped me see my relationship very clearly and then I booked a session with my partner Jane. After just one couple session we realised what we had both been doing not well in our relationships. More than anything Michael inspired me to be the man my woman fell in love with. So we are both working on ourselves and things are great. Thanks Mike. Your great mate. More...

I was divorced about 6 months ago and I have struggled with the emotional fallout and the impact on my life. In an instant my sense of self as a husband and father evaporated. It has taken me a long time to get my handle around what happened in my marriage. Michael showed great compassion and understanding about how this feels as a man and gave me the road map to get myself out of the black hole I felt myself in and pointed me to how to repair my sense of self. If your a divorced man he is a voice of compassion that is sorely needed. More...

Fantastic experience today with Mike! I've been seeing a counsellor and not having any luck dredging up past and not making any progress - after some research I found Mike and after one session, I already feel like I can see a future. I was drowning and barely able to keep my head above water with extreme emotions after leaving a narcissistic relationship. I'm now looking forward to healing and gaining strength and I know I am in good hands to achieve a great path ahead with Mike guiding me. I cannot thank you enough for giving me so much direction after one session! I highly recommend Mike. More...

Working remotely alleviates any issues with Covid 19. You can't catch a virus from someone through a computer.
Anxiety reduction
Anxiety is a profoundly debilitating problem. It stops you from doing anything productive.
Hypnosis is highly effective in alleviating anxiety and getting you making good choice and decisions that take you forward.
The first step in changing your external reality is changing how you deal with the external reality. Then you can start moving forward.
Weight Control
Nobody likes losing things, including weight. However, weight is a significant long term health risk.
The problem that most people experience with weight gain and weight reduction is that they eat for emotional reasons, not when they are hungry.
By dealing with the emotional reasons for eating, very rapidly people can find that it's really easy to lose weight and begin healthy habits.
Depression elimination
Depression is a normal part of life. Frequently, it's a response to the things in your external world being particularly shitty. Or you may just be surrounded by arseholes.
Either way, by changing your focus from the past to the future, by taking and making decisions based on what you want to have happen, depression can be quickly alleviated and you can begin moving forward.

Issues with Intimacy for both men and women
Many people find challenges with intimacy very difficult to navigate. With hypnosis and hypnotherapy, this issues are frequently easily overcome.
Couples Counselling
Every relationship has challenges. Some bigger than others. I work with many couples from addressing small communication challenges to couples who are either separating or are on the brink of doing so. The work I do with them is very direct and challenging. I get them working on themselves as individuals and through that they improve the dynamics of the relationship.
I show no bias. I'm not biased towards men or women, towards the person who hires me or their partner. I'm an equalist. I intend to make everyone who comes to me equally uncomfortable. Because, it gets results.
