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. With a background in applied psychology research, she has presented at the Association for Psychological Sciences, and managed projects funded by the U.S. Department of Education, the National Institutes of Health, and the National Science Foundation. She is a member of the New York Mental Health Counselors Association, APA Division 39, and holds a certificate from Manhattan Institute for Psychotherapy in the One Year Program in Psychoanalysis and the Sociopolitical World.
