Putting therapy into clinical hypnosis
My name is Antony Scratcherd (M.Med.Sci.), clinical hypnotherapist and mental health specialist. I am an experienced trainer and wellbeing consultant. I operate privately via my training and therapy company Deep Structure. I am a registered practitioner and full member of the British Society of Clinical Hypnosis (bsch.org). I have been working in private practice since 2001 whilst formerly being employed as a mental health advisor and CBT therapist for University counselling services. My practice and individualised service delivery is underpinned by principles of positive well-being and mental health rather than mental illness and unhelpful behaviours and negative thinking patterns.
In the past 10 years I have concurrently worked in higher education dedicated to supporting young people, graduate students and academic staff with mental health difficulties. This has enabled me to develop specialist knowledge and skills in supporting these groups. My professional development over this period has included the refinement of specialised skills in brief/single session therapy and risk management. I am part of wider network of practitioners, counsellors and trainers and can refer where appropriate. I charge £60 per in-person session for self-funding clients. Free initial consultations are possible. Online sessions available by request.
