About

DOT SAP Services

I provide virtual DOT SAP evaluations and return-to-duty services for safety-sensitive employees required to complete the SAP process following a DOT drug or alcohol program violation.

As a qualified Substance Abuse Professional (SAP), I provide evaluations, clinical recommendations, follow-up assessments, and return-to-duty documentation in accordance with 49 CFR Part 40 for employees regulated under FMCSA, FAA, FRA, FTA, PHMSA, and USCG guidelines.

I also assist clients navigating current DOT Clearinghouse requirements, including the Clearinghouse II rule changes that began in November 2024.

Services include:

• Initial SAP evaluations
• Education or treatment recommendations
• Follow-up SAP evaluations (Step 4)
• Return-to-duty documentation
• Coordination with employers and designated employer representatives (DERs) as needed

Appointments are typically scheduled within 1–2 days of inquiry and conducted through a secure virtual platform, allowing clients to complete the SAP process efficiently and with clear guidance throughout each step. Return-to-duty documentation is completed promptly following successful completion of the SAP process.

Counseling Services

In addition to SAP services, I provide psychotherapy for individuals and couples navigating grief, relationship concerns, life transitions, and stress-related challenges.

Services are informed by cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), and solution-focused approaches. My approach is structured, practical, and direct while remaining responsive to each client’s needs and goals.

About / Clinical Background

My clinical background includes experience across outpatient therapy, inpatient psychiatric care, crisis response, and emergency behavioral health settings. I’ve worked with individuals and couples across a range of clinical and high-acuity environments.

I also integrate cultural humility and attention to the systemic and relational factors that shape mental health. My training in anti-racist frameworks informs my approach to clinical care.
