An adolescent client's mother called their counselor and shared that her child had newfound motivation. She felt her child was really motivated to get well because of the connections that were made in groups, individual sessions, and how comfortable their counselor made them.

At Thrive, these are the moments that remind us why we do what we do—helping individuals and families find strength, connection, and hope on their journey to wellness.
