The Substance Abuse Professional (SAP) is a person who evaluates employees who have violated a DOT drug and alcohol program regulation and makes recommendations concerning education, treatment, follow-up testing, and aftercare. As a SAP I represent the major decision point (and in some cases the only decision point) an employer may have in choosing whether or not to place an employee behind the steering wheel of a school bus, in the cockpit of a plane, at the helm of an oil tanker, at the throttle of a train, in the engineer compartment of a subway car,

As a former youth lead ministry teacher, I felt led to counseling through my faith, aiming to support holistic development in others and continue to do so regardless of their beliefs. The most rewarding part of my work is seeing clients achieve breakthroughs and realize lasting change. I use CBT and practical assignments to help them apply session insights to daily life. I’m open to integrating faith into therapy, but clients guide that process. My goal is to create a safe space where change is slow but achievable, while empowering clients to advocate for themselves.

Supervised by Larry Bell, LMFT-S; My ideal client is a person, couple, or group who is ready to walk down the path of healing and connection in order to live their lives in an authentic and loving way. I believe that connection with others starts with a genuine connection with self. Issues, needs, and goals vary from person to person, but the folks I'm happy to work with are bringing their whole selves to the room knowing that this work can be difficult, but it is worth it to live in a healed, complete state of being. In addition to therapy, I offer DOT SAP (Substance Abuse Professional) services.

Welcome! My name is Ronda Allison. I am a Lamar University Alum from Houston, Texas. I have lived, loved and breathed the world of mental and physical health, and overall wellness for over 5 years. In my professional experience, the ultimate point of growth and healing from past traumas and management of current stressors is realizing the relationship between mind, body and spirit. Once we understand the co-mingling that must take place between those separate entities, we then open the door to the truest versions of ourselves.

My approach to providing therapy encompasses building a repertoire with the client through validation and empathy, then guiding the client to set goals from a mental and physical standpoint. The most common theoretical approaches I utilize are from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which entails guiding the client to alter their negative perspective by way of challenging anxious thoughts in order to form more positive thought patterns, all the while having the client engage in developing a more manageable lifestyle and environment, in order to better navigate their depressive symptoms.

Do you feel stuck? Are you tired of working so hard and feeling like nothing ever changes? As human beings, we are creatures of habit. The way we think, reason and relate are based on patterns that have developed throughout our lives. If you continue to think - alone - about your struggles, you'll likely remain stuck in the same patterns. As human beings, we are also relational creatures. We learn about ourselves when we are in relationships with others. It is essential for any person's growth and development to think - with - another person.
