Choosing the right hypnotherapist is an important decision — one that can have a lasting impact on your emotional wellbeing and overall quality of life. Whether you’re looking for support with anxiety, phobias, confidence, habits, or something else, it’s vital to ensure you’re working with someone who is genuinely qualified, compassionate, and ethical.
Why Doing Your Research Matters
What many people don’t realise is that hypnotherapy remains an unregulated industry in the UK. Unfortunately, this means that anyone can call themselves a hypnotherapist — even those who have completed nothing more than a one-day course. 😟
That’s why it’s essential to check a therapist’s training, credentials, and professional memberships before beginning your journey. Your mental health and wellbeing deserve nothing less.
What to Look for in a Professional Hypnotherapist
When choosing a hypnotherapist, consider the following:
🎓 Accredited Qualifications
Look for therapists who hold:
HPD (Hypnotherapy in Practice Diploma) — a gold standard in professional hypnotherapy training. Only around 20% of hypnotherapists hold this qualification.
DSFH (Diploma in Solution Focused Hypnotherapy) — demonstrating structured, science-based training.
Relevant degrees and additional therapeutic training.
✔️ Professional Memberships
Reliable hypnotherapists are registered with bodies like:
AFSFH (Association for Solution Focused Hypnotherapists)
NCH (National Council for Hypnotherapy)
These memberships ensure therapists are working to strict ethical codes and undergoing regular supervision and CPD (Continuing Professional Development).
🛡️ Safety and Trust
Make sure your therapist:
Is fully insured
Holds an enhanced DBS check
Attends regular supervision and updates their training
Offers a safe, non-judgmental environment where you feel heard, seen, and supported
