MIAMI, FL, May 20, 2026 (EZ Newswire) -- George J. Mavrookas is expanding Agape Behavioral Healthcare with the planned opening of a third South Florida facility, extending the company’s footprint and reinforcing its integration of hospitality principles into behavioral health treatment.

Over the course of his career, Mavrookas has focused on applying hospitality principles to care environments, shaping a model that emphasizes patient experience alongside clinical support. Recently recognized by Marquis Who’s Who, his work reflects a continued focus on developing care settings that balance operational structure with a more personalized, environment-driven approach to treatment.

Shifting Perspectives at Agape Behavioral Healthcare

More than seven years after founding Agape Behavioral Healthcare, Mavrookas has opened two operational locations and maintains a workforce of 85 employees. Within the next month, he plans to open a third location and increase his team to 100 employees, marking a significant expansion. With each improvement, he is changing how the industry approaches care.

Agape Behavioral Healthcare’s locations are not large hospital-style settings but rather smaller, more intimate facilities. Mavrookas envisions a more boutique-style approach to behavioral health care, utilizing environments that cater to the patient’s experience. His company’s latest expansion initiative adheres to this ideal, putting clients and professionals at the forefront of operations.

“We believe,” Mavrookas explained, “that we want to take care of our staff so our staff can, in turn, take care of the clients that are coming to our facilities… Whether they’re dealing with mental health issues or whether they’re battling substance abuse or alcoholism, there’s a multitude of things in behavioral health care.”

Dedicated to putting teams and clients first, Mavrookas has led Agape Behavioral Healthcare to success. Despite its relatively small size, the company has been recognized as one of the best places to work in South Florida for two consecutive years and among the top 10 companies for four years.

Looking Beyond the Third Facility

Agape Behavioral Healthcare’s latest expansion initiative brings the same approach to a new location in South Florida. Here, clients will be provided with a tranquil environment that prioritizes ample space and outdoor access, situated on the Intracoastal. One location features a fishing dock, while the other offers a beautiful waterfront setting focused on a relaxing, aesthetically pleasing atmosphere.
