George J. Mavrookas is founder and CEO of Agape Behavioral Healthcare, a South Florida organization operating three facilities that provide substance abuse, mental health, and co-occurring disorder treatment. He built the organization around core values of love, care, and compassion, and describes a solution-based mindset that treats problems as opportunities rather than obstacles.
Under his leadership, Agape has grown from its original Fort Lauderdale outpatient facility into a three-location operation that also includes the Agape Detox Center for inpatient substance abuse treatment and the Agape Behavioral Center for inpatient mental health care, all offering evidence-driven therapy for addiction recovery and related conditions.
Mavrookas emphasizes staff development and works to create a family-like atmosphere built on authenticity and vulnerability, mentoring his team and sharing learning resources to encourage professional growth. A committed daily reader who regularly attends industry conferences, he describes his work as inseparable from his life's purpose, while still prioritizing his family, faith, and personal wellness.
