“The word that comes to mind when I think of you is HOPE.” Feedback like this inspires me.

Hi, My name is Rozina. Like most of you, I juggle many roles in my life. I am a mother of two, a volunteer, a businesswoman, a teacher, an author although most people know me as a Psychiatrist ( a Medical Doctor with a focus on Mental Health).

I love what I do. The satisfaction that I get when a person gets his/her smile back, knowing that they initially came with tears in their eyes, is indescribable. These are the moments when I feel that I am fulfilling the purpose of my life.

When I provide treatment as a Psychiatrist, I can decrease suffering for hundreds of people. As a part of the group of providers at Shifa Health, and as a Medical Director at Residence XII and as a Clinical Professor at the University of Washington, I can touch thousands of lives indirectly. Now, with this platform, I want to expand my reach to help millions of people like “you,” to prevent stress and suffering and live a healthier and happier life.  

I share more on my reasons in  my blog: “Why I shifted my focus from treatment to prevention.” Click below to read more about my education and professional activities.
