How to Choose the Best Hypnotherapist in Hampshire
Why Finding the Right Hypnotherapist Matters
Choosing the right hypnotherapist can feel overwhelming. With so many options across Hampshire - from Fareham to Portsmouth, Southampton, Winchester, and Chichester - how do you know who to trust?
The reality is, hypnotherapy is highly personal. The right therapist can make you feel safe, supported, and confident while helping you achieve lasting results. The wrong fit, however, can leave you feeling frustrated or stuck.
Here’s what to look for when choosing the best hypnotherapist in Hampshire.
1. Check Experience and Qualifications
Hypnotherapy isn’t just about scripts or relaxation techniques - it’s about understanding how the mind works and tailoring each session to your unique needs.
At OLIP Therapy Hampshire:
We bring 20+ years of experience supporting clients
Our team is trained in clinical hypnotherapy, CBT, EMDR, and counselling
We’re an award-winning practice (Southern Enterprise Awards 2025)
Tip: Always look for therapists who are qualified, insured, and members of recognised professional bodies.
2. Look for a Personalised Approach
There’s no such thing as “one-size-fits-all” hypnotherapy. A good hypnotherapist will:
Take time to understand your goals
Use techniques tailored to your unique situation
Offer flexibility - combining hypnotherapy with CBT, EMDR, or counselling when needed
At OLIP Therapy, we pride ourselves on designing bespoke treatment plans that deliver better, faster results.
3. Read Reviews and Testimonials
Before booking, check what other clients say:
Look for authentic reviews on Google and social media
Pay attention to success stories and themes (e.g. anxiety, weight loss, habits)
Avoid practitioners who hide or disable reviews
With over 1 million app downloads and thousands of clients helped across Hampshire, our results speak for themselves.
4. Understand What Hypnotherapy Can Help With

Anxiety and stress management
Weight loss and emotional eating in the practice and through our flagship Think Eat Sleep Repeat programme
Confidence building and self-esteem

Fears and phobias - from public speaking to flying

Knowing your therapist’s specialisms ensures you get the best possible support.

Are online sessions available if you can’t travel?
