Verity Litten

Dr Verity Litten is a Clinical and Counselling psychologist and a freelance academic based in Perth, Western Australia. With over a decade’s worth of experience working across a range of therapeutic settings in both the public and private sector, Verity’s research and clinical expertise focuses on neurodivergence, complex trauma, addiction, personality, and gender and sexual identity. Drawing on her background in humanistic, existential, and trauma-informed approaches to mental health, Verity is a strong advocate for therapeutic models that validate personal narratives and social context. She is particularly interested in the power of psychedelics to facilitate deep psychological transformations when situated within relational, culturally sensitive, and non-pathologising frameworks; and how integration processes can help people reclaim agency and restore meaning to experiences of distress. Verity is currently part of the therapy team for the first clinical trial for Psilocybin-Assisted Psychotherapy to run in Western Australia.
