The extrinsic dephasing of a hole spin confined to a self-assembled quantum dot is dominated by charge noise acting on an electric-field dependent g-factor. Here we propose the use of the optical Stark effect to reduce the sensitivity of the effective hole Zeeman energy to fluctuations in the local electric-field. Calculations using measured quantum dot parameters are presented, and demonstrate a factor of 10-100 reduction in the extrinsic dephasing. Compared to active stabilization methods, this technique should benefit from reduced experimental complexity.
