Our Story, Philosophy and Mission Fareham, Hampshire and online since 2003
The right support, from the right therapist, at the right time.
Founded in Fareham in 2003
OLIP Therapy was founded in 2003 by James Holmes and Sue Peckham, who had previously worked together in education. Recognising the increasing need for more professional mental health support, they trained in hypnotherapy and psychotherapy with a vision of helping a wider range of people, including young people, working professionals and the general public.
From the very start, they wanted to make therapy as accessible as possible by offering appointments at times that fitted around people's lives, while maintaining the highest standards of care.
Demand quickly grew, so James and Sue began to build a team of carefully selected, professionally qualified therapists and counsellors with a wide range of experience and specialist training.
The right therapist for you
What makes OLIP Therapy different is our commitment to finding the right therapist for each individual client, rather than expecting every client to fit the same approach. By bringing together professionals with different areas of expertise, we can help you access support that suits your individual needs and circumstances.
Combined with flexible appointment times and a strong emphasis on high professional standards, this personal approach has shaped OLIP Therapy from the very beginning.
The right support, from the right therapist, at the right time.
We put our clients first, ensuring everyone is treated with compassion, respect and understanding, while working with the therapist or counsellor who has the qualifications, experience and specialist skills to help them most effectively.
Making good therapy simple to find
More than two decades after OLIP Therapy began, our mission remains to make finding appropriate, high quality therapy as straightforward and convenient as possible, helping people navigate life's challenges, make positive changes and move forward with greater confidence, happiness and emotional wellbeing.
