Getting to know John Alvarez

IMPORTANT: Thriveworks cannot provide services to clients with Medicaid coverage. If you have Medicaid, please contact your plan directly to find an in-network provider. For all other insurance plans, Thriveworks will verify your benefits after you book through Zocdoc. If verification isn't completed before your visit, you'll be charged our self-pay rate of $200 for that session. AFTER YOU BOOK: Complete these steps to avoid cancellation or being switched to self-pay. 1. Check your email for instructions to set up your Thriveworks account. Within your Thriveworks’ account, sign consent forms and add a valid credit card, which will be automatically charged for copays, fees, post-insurance balances, and self-pay amounts. 2. If using insurance, upload clear photos of the front and back of your insurance card. 3. Expect a confirmation call from our team to verify your information and answer questions. CANCELLATION POLICY: Provide 48 hours advance notice to avoid the $135 late cancellation fee. John Alvarez is a LPC with over 16 years of experience in the mental health field. He also works with couples and families to improve communication dynamics. John earned his Master's Degree in Community Counseling from the University of Texas at San Antonio. He likes to help clients understand the root of their problems through open, informal conversation. He takes an eclectic approach and specializes in cognitive behavioral therapy for addressing changes to behaviors and person-centered therapy for gentle bereavement support.
