A NEW PARADIGM IN LEADERSHIP & HEALING

Integrating Ancient Wisdom with Modern Psychology

The Institute for Spiritual Psychology trains coaches and leaders to support lasting change by combining ancient ritual, modern clinical research, and embodied psychological practice. By engaging both the logical and creative dimensions of the human experience, we guide individuals and practitioners to move beyond anxiety, depression, negative thought patterns, and emotional disconnection toward healing, alignment, and meaningful growth.

Because true transformation happens when scientific insight, integrated embodiment, and spiritual practices work together—holistically, not separately.

What Happens When Mind and Spirit Align

“Turned passion into a profitable coaching and corporate wellness business.”


"I signed up for the Certificate program with no prior formal experience in the mindfulness or wellbeing space. Throughout the program, Erin guided me through every step of building a wellness business. At the conclusion of the program, I have now launched my one-on-one coaching and corporate wellness business; this includes building my website, beefing up my social media, and pitching to leads. The guidance and experience I gained through the program are invaluable. I don't think I would be where I am without it."

- Sarah

“A deeply supportive, life-changing certification led by a master teacher.”


“The Align Coaching Certification is one of the most meaningful investments I’ve ever made in myself. Entering the program at 70 years old, I found a deeply supportive, multi-generational community where I felt completely welcomed and inspired. Erin is a master teacher whose wisdom, guidance, and resources are truly life-changing. Through this program, I developed a powerful daily meditation practice, learned spiritual psychology and real-life tools, and gained the confidence to begin sharing what I’ve learned. This work proved to me that it’s never too late to grow, heal, and expand.”

- DEBBIE

“Vision, nourishment, and soul-aligned expansion—this work transforms how you show up and serve.”


“Erin not only serves as a vision holder in my life, immediately recognizing my unique gifts and light ready to be shared with the world but also serves as a passionate spiritual guide throughout the process. In doing the work through her Mindfulness and Wellbeing Strategy™ Certification, I have deeply connected to the ‘why’ behind my coaching program and the importance of doing all meaningful work from a nourished state which has manifested my soul work exponentially in real time. As an expander in my life, I am grateful for the work she has created for others to share their magic with the world.”

MEET THE FOUNDER

Hi, and welcome. I’m Erin Rachel Doppelt, founder of the Institute for Spiritual Psychology.

For too long, we’ve been taught to choose between two paths, spiritual or scientific, Eastern ritual or Western clinical psychology. Through my own journey and through working with thousands of clients worldwide, I’ve seen that true transformation happens when these worlds are woven together.

When ancient wisdom meets modern psychological research, people step into greater clarity, confidence, and alignment and begin living as the most empowered version of themselves.

The Origins of ISP

The Institute was born from my experience studying and living in Indian ashrams alongside earning a Master’s degree in Clinical Psychology and Education from Columbia University, weaving ancient practice with modern science. In addition to my work in psychology, I have extensively studied classical religious texts and organized religious traditions, analyzing their mystical dimensions to identify recurring spiritual frameworks and archetypal patterns across cultures.

As the author of Nothing Can Stop You and through my work featured on NBC, Fox, mindbodygreen, Nike, and global stages, I’ve witnessed firsthand the power of integrating spirituality with grounded methodology.

At the Institute for Spiritual Psychology, we teach a framework that honors the whole person, the spiritual and the practical, the intuitive and the evidence-based. Our work supports you in developing both inner alignment and real-world embodiment, so you can live, lead, and build a life and business that feels deeply meaningful, life giving and abundant. 

Welcome to the Institute for Spiritual Psychology. We are so thrilled to have you here!

Please trust you found us for a reason as the next aligned step on your journey.
