Episode Twenty Eight: Spiritual Psychology with Ektha

Ektha Aggarwal is a licensed psychotherapist, keynote speaker, and founder of Shakti Therapy & Healing Services and non-profit JiVA Mental Health. She leads with a vision that blends modern psychology, psychedelic-assisted therapy, and Vedic healing principles to offer deep, integrative care for the mind, body, and spirit. Ektha specializes in trauma, somatic therapy, and nervous system repair—and is trained in psychedelic modalities that support long-term, soul-rooted transformation. As the practice name suggests, Shakti—from Sanskrit—represents the divine feminine life force within each of us. Ektha's mission is to help clients awaken this inner healer, break generational cycles, and reclaim their personal power from this force. Beyond therapy, she's fiercely committed to building the next wave of clinicians—ones who break from clinical detachment and instead lead with heart, cultural humility, and consciousness. Her leadership challenges outdated norms, and reimagines therapy as a sacred, liberating, and culturally inclusive space.  She has led several large-scale wellness events, speaks regularly on mental health and identity, and is known for creating spaces where people feel seen, energized, and empowered. Outside the therapy room, Ektha is either dancing to Bollywood, punching it out in Muay Thai, practicing light magic—because healing deserves play, strength, and a little sparkle.
