Thrive … an evidence-based mental health coaching program turned into a course for anyone.
A 20-week course for mental health renewal, resilience, and flourishing.
Thrive is like having a mental health coach guiding you to greater mental wellness and well-being.
Thrive: Living Resilient and Renewed.
In 2011, we (Grace Alliance) began by offering mental health recovery coaching, which led to incredible outcomes (published research — see summary results below). Thrive Coaching quickly grew in demand, eventually resulting in a national waiting list that exceeded our infrastructure and capacity.
Instead of adding another waitlist for our growing coaching program, we chose to close it and reinvent it.
We transformed the coaches’ manual into a comprehensive mental health recovery course — a workbook designed for individual and group use. That became the Thrive workbook, now used by thousands around the world for groups or personal growth!
We (Grace Alliance) are regrouping to enhance the Thrive Course program. In the meantime, the workbooks remain available for purchase.
Thrive: Living Resilient & Renewed (2023 revised edition):
Thrive: Living Resilient and Renewed is more in-depth and a comprehensive whole health or whole-person course aiding mental health recovery from unmanageable stress, burnout, trauma, and any mental health condition.
Thrive is divided into four whole-person sections (with five chapters per section)*
Physical + Mental + Spiritual + Relational
Each week/chapter guides you and your group through:
Scripture reflection (simple)
Scientific insights (easy to understand)
Pre-evaluation and growth goal metric
Tools (visual, simple to apply)
Post-evaluation to monitor and adapt for growth goals
Lots of additional notes, tips, and facts throughout (making grace pracitical)

*Thrive has proven results
Thrive in collaboration with professional treatment — The study concluded that the participant saw significant improvements in:
Reduced depression, anxiety, and avoidance (fear) of activities.
Improved mood and affect (joy resurfaced)
Improved cognition and memory
Improved relationships and participating in social-spiritual activities (church, small group, etc.)
Two-month post-surveys indicated ongoing improvement
CONCLUSION: This kind of collaboration is not just feasible but advantageous. It reduces barriers to both spiritual and therapeutic care. For religious clients, integrating therapy with spiritual support via clergy can enhance treatment, improve engagement, and leverage the faith resources the person already has. The study argues that secular psychology should no longer ignore religion/spirituality in treatment when it is salient for the client, but rather embrace collaboration in a careful, principled way.
