The roots of the 125+ year history of Thrive Counseling Center began in 1898 when a small group of Oak Park women met informally at home, then began to work with families in the community. Through the years, Thrive has been committed to hope, resilience, and recovery.
Thrive is a nonprofit community mental health center dedicated to ensuring that everyone has access to affordable, high-quality mental health care.

Who Does Thrive Serve?
Thrive provides mental health care to people at all stages of life (ages 6+) with diverse backgrounds and experiences. Thrive serves clients throughout the West Cook County suburbs and beyond. Over 90% are uninsured or use Medicaid and have few or no nearby alternatives for seeking support.
Many of Thrive’s clients have complex mental health needs that often overlap with other circumstances such as substance use, unstable housing, and unemployment. These challenges, at times combined with racial, gender, and other systemic inequities, can create immense obstacles to living a healthy life.
