Hi, I’m Alvis — a Licensed Mental Health Counselor based in Gainesville, FL.
Before counseling, I spent years in the health and fitness industry in New York City, helping clients who felt stuck or overmatched in their goals. I later trained in spiritual wellness at St. Andrew’s Church here in Gainesville. Both experiences taught me the same lesson: real growth means working with mind, body, and spirit together. It brings me immense joy to see my clients go from stuck to flourishing.
I work with adults, couples, families, adolescents, and college students.
I specialize in anxiety, depression, substance abuse, codependency, family and couples counseling, and life transitions.
For more than twenty years, I have had the privilege of walking alongside adolescents, adults, and couples during some of the most difficult and meaningful seasons of their lives. I believe that sometimes it can be difficult to see beyond the darkness in front of us. My role is to listen without judgement while helping you find your way toward the light again.

Headway makes it easier to find support for overcoming addiction — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.
Factors to Consider When Choosing an Addiction Therapist in Orlando
Finding addiction therapists in Orlando starts with identifying the kind of support that matches your needs. Addiction care can include support for alcohol use, substance use, gambling, sex addiction, and other behavioral concerns. Some therapists list experience with motivational interviewing, cognitive behavioral therapy for substance use, harm reduction, relapse prevention, or coordination with medication-assisted care. If medication may be part of your care, you may also want a prescriber on your care team.
Orlando has a range of local therapy options, and virtual appointments can add more flexibility if office location, traffic, or scheduling affects your search. Recovery often takes more than one straight path, so it helps to look for a therapist who describes a nonjudgmental approach and experience with addiction-related concerns. As you compare therapists, review availability, session format, therapeutic approach, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Reading bios can help you understand how each therapist talks about substance use, behavioral concerns, and support for change before you book.
Therapy in Orlando can be expensive without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to lower your session cost. Headway makes it easier to compare addiction therapists who are accepting new patients, review their bios, check virtual and in-person options, and see your estimated out-of-pocket cost before booking. From there, you can find someone who matches your needs, accepts your plan, and has availability that works for you.
If you or someone you know is experiencing severe withdrawal symptoms — especially from alcohol or benzodiazepines — talk to a medical provider or seek emergency care before starting outpatient therapy. If you or someone you know is struggling with addiction or substance use and is in a crisis, immediately reach out to:
* 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline — call or text 988 * SAMHSA National Helpline — 1-800-662-HELP (4357), free, confidential, 24/7 * Crisis Text Line — text HOME to 741741
