Our Story
Thrive Ahead Co. is a community-led approach to wellness. Founded in 2021, Thrive Ahead Co. offers specialized, professional therapy, wellness resources, and professional services support for clients and therapists alike. Serving the greater Chicago area, our mission is to cultivate a collaborative community where clients, therapists, and partnering businesses feel empowered and at home. The Thrive Ahead Community is about being connected to one another as resources so that we’re free to build further meaning in our lives.
First and foremost, we offer evidence-based, down-to-earth, healing therapy. Plus, Thrive Ahead Co. goes beyond traditional therapy to create a collaborative community, including gathering spaces, workshops, and events, as well as referrals to our partners for fitness options, nutritional guidance, support groups, career development, and much more. This community is a place for holistic wellness, to explore a new side of one’s self, and to not just cope but to “THRIVE AHEAD!”
Founder, Jenn Graus, LCPC, set out to create ease for therapists by enabling them to be more attentive to their clients, while the Thrive Ahead Co. team assists with any necessary administrative, business, and ongoing education needs.
For the practitioners and community partners, this novel concept creates a robust network of mutual referrals that benefit the clients, each other as professionals, and the larger community. Given the mental health struggles individuals face today, the idea of “doing it alone,” just doesn’t work, giving way to the Thrive Ahead Co. Community.
