- Dr Nazrul Azizi
Dr. Nazrul Azizi is a psychologist and the founder of Muslim Mental Health Lab. He is also a board member under the Malaysian Ministry of Health. With a PhD in Psychology, a Master’s in Counselling, and a Bachelor’s degree from the U.S., Dr. Nazrul combines professional experience with strong academic background to support mental health in the Muslim community.
Over the years, Dr. Nazrul has worked with many people through community outreach programs, especially those facing emotional struggles and mental health issues. He realized that many Muslims need a healing approach that includes both psychology and Islamic values. This inspired him to start Muslim Mental Health Lab — a center that offers therapy, education, and support based on both science and faith.
Dr. Nazrul believes that mental health should be easy to access and free from stigma. His goal is to help people heal emotionally and spiritually, while also building stronger, healthier communities guided by compassion, knowledge, and Islam.
