Alex Alvarado | Source | Co-Founder and CEO at Daybreak Health

Alex Alvarado is the Co-Founder and CEO of Daybreak Health. The seeds of our mission began 15 years ago with my younger brother's struggle with depression in middle school. Our family spent 100's of hours trying to find a therapist that was affordable, close to home, didn't have a waitlist, and most importantly - understood him. What we found instead: $200 sessions, multi-hour drives, 2 month wait lists, and therapists who had never worked with teens in their lives. Thankfully, after 10 years and a lot of pain, my brother finally got the support he needed and deserved. We want to help families get there faster.
