Finding the right support for change can feel overwhelming. Whether you're looking to overcome a phobia, manage anxiety, build confidence or break unwanted habits, knowing where to begin isn't always easy. With varying approaches and qualifications, finding a hypnotherapist you can trust can feel daunting.

Our mission is to help people make informed decisions about their wellbeing by connecting them with trusted hypnotherapy professionals and reliable information, making it easier to access support with confidence.

Why we exist

Finding support can feel overwhelming

When you're struggling emotionally, knowing where to start isn't always easy.

Searching online often brings up endless options, conflicting information and uncertainty about who to trust. Hypnotherapy Directory was created to make that first step simpler.

We work to connect people with trusted hypnotherapy professionals while providing reliable information that helps them make informed decisions about their wellbeing.

Since 2008, we've helped thousands of people across the UK access support.

Why people trust us

Support you can trust

Verified professionals

Every profile on Hypnotherapy Directory displays our Verified Seal. As part of our approval process, we check each professional has either membership with a recognised professional body or relevant qualifications and insurance, helping to ensure they meet the standards expected within their profession.

This means you can search with greater confidence, knowing we've taken steps to check the credentials of every professional in our directory.

Independent and people-first

We don't match people through automated algorithms. Instead, professionals create their own profiles, giving you the opportunity to learn about their approach, experience and personality so you can decide who feels like the right fit for you.

High-quality information

Alongside our directory, we provide expert-led wellbeing information designed to help you understand your options and take the next step.

Our story

From one directory to a trusted wellbeing network

Hypnotherapy Directory was founded in 2008, following the successful launch of Counselling Directory in 2005.

As awareness of mental health and emotional wellbeing has grown, so have we. Today, we're part of the Happiful family – a network of wellbeing platforms dedicated to connecting people with trusted support, information and resources.

While we've grown over the years, our purpose remains the same: helping people access support with confidence.

Our commitment

Putting people first

Everything we do is guided by three principles:

  1. Trust – We verify professionals and maintain clear standards.
  2. Quality – We provide reliable information that people can depend on.
  3. Choice – We empower people to find support that feels right for them.

We know reaching out can be difficult. Our role is to make that journey feel a little easier.
