She/Her/Hers

Alpana founded Wove Therapy in 2018 with the aim of centering both clients and clinicians with marginalized identities. Wove is her response to the resounding need for counseling and supervision that takes intersectionality and systems into account. Alpana is a therapist, a supervisor, an advocate, and a lifelong learner. Anti-racist, anti-oppressive, and critically conscious values guide every step of her work. Her approach is interpersonal, caring, and incredibly honest.

Alpana completed her BA in Psychology from Barnard College and her MA in Counseling Psychology from New York University. She is currently a psychoanalytic candidate at the National Institute for the Psychotherapies, and is a graduate of Manhattan Institute for Psychotherapy: One Year Program in Psychoanalysis and the Sociopolitical World. Her professional memberships include: Society for Psychoanalysis and Psychoanalytic Psychology (Division 39 of the American Psychological Association), Psychoanalysis for Social Responsibility (Section IX, Division 39), the International Association for Relational Psychoanalysis and Psychotherapy, New York Mental Health Counselors Association, and Women's Mental Health Consortium.
