Initially on a path toward becoming an elementary school teacher, her focus shifted after a personal experience sparked a deep interest in health and healing. This turning point led her to naturopathic medicine, where she found purpose in seeking solutions to complex and often unanswered medical challenges.

Since then, she has practiced as a licensed Naturopathic Physician in the state of Washington and has worked alongside Dr. Ashley Irizarry since the launch of New Wave Medicine in August 2021.

-
Removing obstacles to health
-
Stimulating the body’s self-healing mechanisms
-
Strengthening weakened or damaged systems – Restore and regenerate
-
Correcting structural integrity
-
Using natural therapies to address pathology and symptoms
-
Using pharmaceutical or synthetic substances, on a case-by-case basis, to stop progressive pathology
-
Referring out if high-force, invasive therapies are necessary to suppress pathology
Outside of her naturopathic practice, Dr. Shakib is an experience junkie—embracing all types of new adventures that help her gain a broader perspective on the world around her. She lives by naturopathic principles in both her personal and professional life.
