Don't wait 2 weeks, appointments available! Dr. Lopez-Larson is a board certified child, adolescent and adult psychiatrist and received her MD from the University of Cincinnati School of Medicine. She performed her adult and child psychiatry training at Harvard Medical School training sites including Massachusetts General Hospital/McLean Hospital and Cambridge Hospital, respectively. She has been practicing for over 15 years in a variety of settings including academic research, inpatient, residential and outpatient psychiatric services.
She has extensive clinical and research experience and has completed an integrative medicine fellowship in the fall of 2107. Through this fellowship Dr. Lopez-Larson has developed a diverse knowledge-base in complementary mind-body techniques to further personalize her approach to help patients heal.
Her unique skill set has resulted in the establishment of a practice which combines classic psychiatric services with evidence-based complementary treatments such as supplements, nutrition, meditation and other modalities to provide an individual with a holistic approach to the treatment of mental health related issues.
