Alliance Psychological Services of New York is a small group practice providing therapy via telehealth. As humans with radical values, we actively oppose the "mental health industrial complex"—the cultural, political, and economic system that maintains structures of oppression through its power to define and enforce "sanity." Many of us who seek care end up experiencing coercion and control. Yet, because (1) we are human, and (2) we wake up every morning to capitalism and a piping-hot, freshly poured cup of injustice, we need care.

Our staff is made up of people who need care and also provide it. Our work is compassionate rather than corrective. We value flexibility and seek to evolve with our clients' needs. Many of our clients seek healing from the long-term effects of complex trauma, intergenerational trauma, and the collateral damage of what bell hooks calls  "imperialist white supremacist capitalist patriarchy ." We use anti-racist, LGBTQIA-affirming, and feminist models of care in our work.
