Richard Dopp, M.D.
Medical Director
Dr. Dopp brings with him an extraordinary breadth of experience, having served for almost two decades as a Clinical Associate Professor at the University of Michigan's Department of Psychiatry, where he has led initiatives in medical education and child & adolescent psychiatry. His dedication to innovative, evidence-based care aligns perfectly with Mala’s mission to provide trauma-informed, neurodiversity-affirming, and culturally sensitive services to families in need.
Dr. Dopp is passionate about promoting wellness in children and adolescents, particularly through the intersection of physical activity, sleep, and mental health. His research into these areas demonstrates a deep commitment to addressing the root causes of emotional and psychological distress, values that resonate deeply with our holistic approach to care at Mala. Like Mala, Dr. Dopp believes in the importance of preventative care and early intervention, working to identify and support at-risk children and families before issues escalate into crises.
Dr. Dopp joins Mala to oversee our medication management program, where he will not only see his own clients but also lead a team of psychiatric nurse practitioners and interns. His vision for the program is ambitious and collaborative, emphasizing compassionate, individualized care while advancing professional training. Dr. Dopp is excited to create a robust, hands-on training component for psychiatric nurse practitioners at Mala, allowing them to learn from his expertise and continue to deliver the highest level of care.
Dr. Dopp will continue to serve as Medical Director at the University of Michigan’s University Center for the Child & Family, maintaining his long-standing connection with Michigan's academic and medical community. His decision to join Mala speaks to his desire to expand his impact on mental health care by developing a program that not only treats but empowers both clients and practitioners alike. We are honored to welcome Dr. Dopp and look forward to the continued growth and success of our new medication management program under his leadership.
Our Care is Always…
Neurodiversity Affirming
We are committed to a neurodiversity affirming practice. This means we respect and celebrate the diversity of human brains and experiences, recognizing that neurological differences are natural and valuable. Our goal is to support individuals in ways that enhance their strengths and address their unique challenges.
Culturally Sensitive and Trauma-Informed Care
Cultural sensitivity is at the heart of our services. We understand that cultural backgrounds and experiences shape health and wellness. Our team is trained to provide care that respects and integrates these cultural factors. Additionally, our trauma-informed approach ensures that we create a safe and supportive environment, recognizing the impact of trauma on mental health and working to avoid re-traumatization.
