WHY THRIVE?

Rooted in Compassion. Driven by Neuroscience. Focused on You.

At Thrive, we believe that healing is possible—and that you don’t have to walk through it alone. We combine the science of psychiatry with a deep belief in personalized, integrative care. Every step of our process is grounded in compassion, connection, and hope.

WHY JENNIFER CREATED THRIVE.

After nearly two decades of working in mental health care, Jennifer saw a gap—patients who were doing “all the right things” (medication and therapy), but still weren’t getting better.

Thrive Integrative Psychiatry was born to bridge that gap.

We’re here for the people who are burned out. Who feel like nothing has worked. Who are ready for change, even if they’re not sure what that change looks like yet.

This clinic isn’t just about treating symptoms—it’s about helping you reclaim your life.

WHAT MATTERS MOST

Our Values

Whole-person care. You are more than a diagnosis.

Personalized Care. Your treatment plan is built around you—tailored to your preferences, needs, and goals. While some interventions (like TMS) are prescribed based on clinical standards, we take a person-centered approach and meet you where you are. Whether that means exploring alternative therapies, adjusting educational resources, or working around your comfort level, we’re here to support your journey in a way that feels right for you.

Innovation. We integrate cutting-edge therapies like TMS with proven mental health tools.

Hope. We’ll never stop believing that healing is possible.

You don’t always have to feel this way.

QUALITY OF CARE

Multiple Practitioners Same Goal

Every person on our team shares one goal: to meet you with care, expertise, and hope. We collectively commit to being here to support your healing—wherever you are in the journey.

A Team That Truly Cares

We’re more than clinicians. We’re listeners, educators, and advocates.
