Ramsha Altaf
Affiliate, Medicine - Primary Care and Population Health
BioI am originally from Pakistan and recently completed my bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, with my education taking shape across three institutions in Pakistan and the United States. I am now completing my pre-med prerequisites as I continue building toward medicine. As the first woman in my family line to pursue higher education in this way, education has always carried deep meaning for me.
My path has been nontraditional, and that has shaped the way I think about care, advocacy, and opportunity. Along the way, I co-founded a youth mental health platform and gained clinical experience in both hospital and outpatient settings, which strengthened my interest in patient-centered care and the systems that shape it.
At Stanford, I am involved in functional medicine, complex pediatric care, and senior care clinics, and I am also engaging with research through these experiences. Being part of these spaces has expanded the way I think about care across different stages of life and deepened my interest in medicine that is both thoughtful and advocacy-driven.
Long-term, I hope to pursue an MD–JD so I can both treat patients and advocate for them. -

As a native Spanish speaker, Dr. Altamirano blends her expertise in psychotic-spectrum disorders with an understanding of the cultural influences shaping Latinx/a/o clinical presentations.
Dr. Altamirano's main research and clinical interests center on cultural adaptations to psychosocial treatments for psychotic-spectrum disorders. As part of the EPI-CAL initiative, she serves as a CBTp trainer for community clinicians and provides ongoing consultation, contributing to the development of a network of early psychosis programs across California. Through Stanford’s INSPIRE Training Program, she also delivers CBTp training and consultation that extends beyond California.
Dr. Altamirano is a dedicated educator and mentor. She co-teaches the undergraduate course "Destigmatizing Psychosis: I Thought I Heard My Name," and is working to expand this course into community and graduate student settings. She serves as an academic mentor and postdoctoral supervisor within the Stanford Clinical Psychology Fellowship program, and advises graduate students in the PGSP-Stanford PsyD Consortium.
She additionally serves as the Chair of the Psychosis and Schizophrenia Spectrum Special Interest Group (PASS SIG) at the Association for Behavioral and Cognitive Therapies (ABCT) and as the co-chair of the Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion team at the North America CBTp Network. Reflecting her commitment to educational equity, Dr. Altamirano is also a Board member of the South County California Student Opportunity and Access Program (Cal-SOAP), where she supports efforts to promote higher education opportunities for underserved students—a mission informed by her own experience navigating the K-12 to higher education pipeline as a Cal-SOAP alumna. Her dedication to expanding access extends internationally: she co-taught a version of the "Destigmatizing Psychosis" course in Mexico, mentors visiting international research interns, and is actively working to develop CBTp training in Mexico, reflecting her commitment to expanding culturally responsive, evidence-based mental health care across borders.
