Bryan Cressey, founder of Above and Beyond Recovery Center, an innovative addiction treatment facility in Chicago providing transformative services to the homeless and uninsured who would otherwise have no access to treatment. Above and Beyond employs evidence-based techniques, encouraging its clients to see the consequences of their behavior as something they can change by changing their beliefs about their lives—often complicated with challenging circumstances of poverty, homelessness, abuse, and addiction. Only 4 years old, Above and Beyond has been named as one of the best three addiction treatment centers in Chicago. He is also the co-founder of Golder, Thoma, Cressey, Rauner, and Thoma Cressey Bravo in 1997, and Cressey & Company in 2008, along with co-founding Frist Cressey Ventures in 2015 with longtime friend and business partner, Senator Bill Frist.
