Dr Letticia Banton is a clinical integrative psychotherapist (UKCP) and chartered counselling psychologist (HCPC, BPS). She trained at the Metanoia Institute. Her clinical and academic work is rooted in a genuine interest in people, and she seeks to bring a sensitive and relational depth- approach.
Letticia draws primarily on psychodynamic, relational psychoanalytic and Gestalt ideas in her therapeutic approach. She has clinical experience both privately and in the third sector, including most recently as Clinical Manager for an affordable psychoanalytic community clinic, overseeing a team of trainee therapists from a range of training programmes in London. For the past few years, she has also consulted for and facilitated on CPD programmes at Tavistock Relationships and Confer. In addition to teaching, she now runs a private practice in East London. She is also continuing her own psychoanalysis and studies in Jungian Analysis.
Letticia’s doctoral research explored how women experience the menstrual cycle in psychotherapy, unpacking its psychological, phenomenological and relational significance. Her broader clinical and research interests include a focus on gender, and she has a decade of clinical experience working with trans and non-binary people. She conducted IPA research into the lived experience of heterosexual cross-dressing men as part of an MSc in Psychological Sciences at Birkbeck College, University of London. As an undergraduate she read Modern History at the University of Oxford.
