DR. RONAYE CALVERT

Dr. Ronaye Calvert is the Executive Director of Revive Detox and Recovery Services. She earned her Doctorate in Clinical Psychology from Alliant International University in Los Angeles in 2007. Ronaye has extensive experience working in the addiction and recovery field and the LGBTQ+ community. She has a deep understanding of how personal issues may serve to motivate or hinder us and has the ability to attend to each of her clients with sensitivity and insight. While working in residential treatment settings, Ronaye directed Dual-Diagnosis treatment and, in her role as Trauma Specialist, led others to a deeper understanding of working with individuals with a history of emotional and/or sexual trauma.

Dr. Calvert’s personal philosophy is not to help clients see what is wrong with them, but rather to help them acknowledge and embrace what is right with them. Clients often need help, not only discussing their feelings and problems but, taking action-steps toward living differently, with the support they need and deserve to succeed.

“It is an invaluable experience to have created an environment where no individual slips through the cracks or remains a stranger amongst a large milieu, unseen and merely another face in the crowd. In Revive’s truly specialized treatment setting which thrives upon the highest standards of client care, it is profoundly satisfying to witness the sense of accomplishment and self-esteem that emerges through our clients’ new-found hope for life.”

Ronaye created the Passion Development™ addiction treatment modality “If we are not fulfilled and internally motivated in our lives, passionate about what we are doing and why, we simply will not stay sober.”
