Therapy for Black, Indigenous + People of Color

Wove Therapy founder, Alpana Choudhury, unpacks some of her thoughts on BIPOC therapy spaces, business ownership, the complicated ethics of the healthcare industry, and the truth about Imposter Syndrome!

In a discussion with Alice MIlls Mai of Centering Wholeness, a practice that centers QPOC and those affected by mass incarceration, Alpana elaborates on what values drive Wove's mission. The reality that the mental health field is as segregated and oppressive as any other field is unsurprising to most BIPOC and other marginalized folks. Therapists and clients alike are faced with so many barriers to entry based on a history of discrimination, economic insecurity, gatekeeping in academia, and so forth. It begs the question: What can we do to dismantle the system from within?
