Our mission is to treat the whole woman — mind, body, and soul — with personalized care that evolves with you.

Meet the Founder
Madison Sweet, LISW
Madison is a licensed independent social worker (LISW), certified through Postpartum Support International (PSI), and a proud PSI Iowa board member. Her primary focus is providing holistic, trauma-informed support as you navigate daily challenges, including perinatal and postnatal life.
She founded Bloom Women’s Wellness in 2021 after realizing there was a massive gap in mental health care available to women during the most challenging seasons of life. Since then, Bloom has grown into a therapy clinic offering comprehensive care to the community of Central Iowa.

freqeuntly asked Questions
Can’t find what you’re looking for? Reach out to our team directly.
What insurance providers do you take?
We accept Wellmark Blue Cross Blue Shield, Anthem, Midland’s Choice, Cigna, Health Partners, and private pay clients. Because we believe that mental health care should be accessible, we are happy to work with you on a sliding fee scale.
How can therapy help?
The goal of therapy is to provide a safe space for someone to explore their experiences, feelings, and thoughts in order to find realistic solutions. Psychotherapy can also be helpful in treating mental health concerns such as anxiety disorders, mood disorders, personality disorders, eating disorders, addictions, and more. Daily conflicts and life stressors can be difficult to navigate and therapy can help you find the tools to deal with these things in a healthier way.
What concerns outside of pregnancy do you address?
We always say that we’re generalists first and specialists second. We’re here for girls heading into teenhood, college-aged women, ladies established in their lives, mothers, women who wish to become mothers, women who don’t dream of having kids, and those who have navigated loss, trauma, marriage, divorce, and beyond.
How do I choose my mental health provider?
Find a provider whose focus areas align with your concerns. Check their background and education. Most importantly, make sure you feel comfortable and safe sharing your thoughts. It’s okay to try a new provider if you need a better fit.
How long does therapy take?
There’s no set amount of time therapy should take. Each person is different. We’ll begin with a plan that suits your needs and adjust from there together.
Is medication a substitute for therapy?
Long-term solutions to emotional and mental concerns can’t be solved by medication alone. However, combining medication with counseling can be very effective. We take a holistic approach to every care plan.
What is the difference between a psychiatrist and a psychologist?
Psychiatrists are medical doctors who can diagnose conditions and prescribe medication. Psychologists provide talk therapy and psychological testing but do not prescribe. At Bloom, we have both on our team for comprehensive, collaborative care.
What is the Bloom Standard for diagnosing ADHD or autism?
Our Bloom Standard is a multi-step approach: an initial therapy intake, comprehensive psychological testing, and a medication consultation if needed. It’s compassionate, thorough, and designed to give you clarity and a clear path forward.
How can I refill my prescription?
Visit our Prescription Refills page, review our refill policy, and complete the HIPAA release form. You can also contact Michelle, our registered nurse, at medication@bloomwomenswellness.org or (515) 776-7859.
What is your cancellation policy?
We ask for 24-hour notice before your appointment. Cancellations under 24 hours are subject to a $185 fee. Medication appointments require at least 48 business hours notice. Excessive cancellations or 3+ no-shows may result in termination of services.
What is your process for lab work at Bloom?
Your provider recommends labs based on your symptoms and goals. You complete testing in-office, at a local lab, or at home. Then you receive a personalized care plan. We guide you through every step.
What is CareCredit?
CareCredit is a healthcare credit card that lets you pay for out-of-pocket wellness expenses over time. Visit our Payment Options page to learn more.
