Once one releases the stigma and goes for it, finding good mental health care can be difficult at…read moretimes. It's all about who you can connect with and I can't speak highly enough of Dr. Tanya Mickler. She's super smart, kind, has so many tools to help with integrating mind, body, and spirit. In my experience, I could talk until the cows come home and experience very little change. Dr. Mickler helps integrate what my mind thinks and my body feels, she helps me bridge the connection between KNOWING that I'm a pretty great person and actually FEELING like a pretty great person. I can't speak to all the people within the practice, but Dr. Mickler is brilliant. Aaaaaand she takes my insurance!

This is a terrific practice. I have worked with Dr. Evans and he has been extremely helpful for…read moreimproving some emotional issues that have been triggered by work and family stress. The practice is fairly large for a therapy practice according to Dr Evans, but they seem to have an expert to cover pretty much any problem. That's nice to know that they won't direct someone to a psychologist who isn't really familiar with their specific problem. I know that Dr Evans continues to teach at UF, so I feel good that he is knowledgeable and is well respected in the community. I sent a work colleague to him for some help for her son, she also was very happy with him and it sounds like he really helped her son. He is very easy-going and can be funny when he wants to. I liked that about him. He is clearly very smart but he doesn't talk over your head. I really liked that it was a real conversation with him. It made me feel at ease and I opened up more quickly than I thought that I would. I would say to anyone that you should try and do some research on any Thanks psychologist. I did mine and I'm glad that I did.

He is an exceptional listener and knows how to ask the right questions. Very comfortable and tasteful office space.

Cannot speak highly enough of Alvis Duncan Counseling!

For fun, I like to travel, exercise, and eat good food. As a family, we enjoy taking care of our chickens and ducks on our miniature farm. I've always been interested in physical and spiritual health.  I believe that both are important components of total wellness.  Prior to counseling, I had a successful career in the health and fitness industry of New York City. Often, gym clients felt stuck, overwhelmed and overmatched in their quest for physical health.   I loved when I was able to help someone who was putting in tremendous effort but not getting the results they wanted. For the last few years I've have trained extensively in spiritual wellness working for St. Andrew's Church in Gainesville. Whether working for a gym or a church, my joy came from helping people become unstuck and find both growth an abundant life.  I bring that wellness mindset into my counseling sessions and enjoy fostering mind, body and spiritual growth with clients. I work with adults, couples, families, adolescents and college students. I also have training in treating substance abuse in adolescents and adults. I tend to counsel more from an approach than a particular theory. I use the Interpersonal Process Approach as my conceptual framework as it is highly adaptable, integrative and flexible...

As a nationally certified mental health counselor, Susan Crews specializes in trauma treatment…read more(PTSD) and is certified in two mental health arenas: EMDR and Neurofeedback. She is excellent at her craft: extremely knowledgeable, professional, friendly, compassionate, & accommodating. EMDR stands for Eye Movement Desensitization & Reprocessing. It is a form of psychotherapy in which the patient recalls distressing images while generating bilateral sensory input. Neurofeedback is a medication-free healing treatment for those who suffer from anxiety, ADHD, OCD, insomnia, etc. In a relaxed setting, it involves the patient watching (on a computer monitor) his/her own brain's activity. Susan Crews also works w/ individuals who may suffer w/ depression, anger, substance abuse, & numerous other mental health issues. Most health insurances are accepted. Call to discuss an appointment date & time; do NOT show up without an appointment as this therapist's days/times vary weekly. (She has a secondary office in Trenton, FL while her Gainesville office is located within Tucker Chiropractic off NW 39th Ave.) This incredibly kind & qualified woman saved my life, but she is too humble to realize just how much she helped me. I had interviewed six PTSD counselors before selecting Ms. Crews. I couldn't have selected a better counselor. I shall always consider her a friend-- just a genuinely GOOD human being.

She actually taught me how to cope when things get overwhelming for me. Honestly, a life changing experience for me, for the better. Counselors are not a one size fits all; find someone you truly trust and with whom you can speak freely without embarrassment or judgement. Susan was this for me. A truly wonderful person who wants her clients to heal; she's not looking for long term clients. She wants to help you so you can move on in a positive way. We incorporated numerous techniques (such as EDMR, I can't even remember the name some of them) and I'm able to use these techniques now by myself. I'm not one who wants to just sit and talk about things with a counselor (had that for years and never got anywhere), I wanted actions I could take to make my life bearable. Susan was extremely helpful in that respect. She's definitely worth a look to see if you fit well together. I'm certainly glad I found her.
