Bloom Women’s wellness
Real Support, Right From Home.
You shouldn’t have to choose between getting care and getting through your day. Bloom’s licensed counselors offer virtual therapy to women across Iowa and Minnesota, with the same warmth and expertise you’d find in our Urbandale clinic. Many of our counselors specialize in perinatal and postpartum mental health, and we work with most major insurance plans.
WHY CHOOSE VIRTUAL THERAPY WITH BLOOM
Quality Care That Fits Into Your Life
Virtual therapy removes the barriers that so often stand between women and support: the drive, the childcare, the waiting room. Sessions take place over a secure video platform, so you can meet with your counselor from home, between naps, or on your lunch break.
nlike many large online therapy platforms, Bloom is a Midwest clinic with a real team behind you. Your counselor is licensed in your state, we accept insurance, and you can match with someone who understands your season of life, from pregnancy and postpartum to grief, anxiety, and everything in between.

What to Expect
After you book, you’ll receive a secure link to join your session from a phone, tablet, or computer. All you need is a private space and a reliable internet connection.
Your first session is a chance to share what’s bringing you in and begin building a relationship with your counselor. From there, you’ll work together on a plan that fits your goals and your schedule.
Because therapy is regulated by state, you need to be physically located in Iowa or Minnesota during your session, even if you’re traveling. If you’re unsure whether you’re covered, our team is happy to help.

We Have Answers!
If your question wasn’t answered here, or you’d like more information before booking an appointment please reach out via our contact form, or give us a call. We will make sure you have everything you need to make your decision.
Where does Bloom offer virtual therapy?
We offer virtual therapy to clients located in Iowa and Minnesota. Therapists must be licensed in the state where the client is during the session, so we match you with a counselor licensed where you are. Iowa clients can meet with any of our virtual or hybrid counselors, and Minnesota clients are matched with counselors licensed in Minnesota.
Is virtual therapy as effective as in-person therapy?
For many people and concerns, yes. Research on therapy by video has been encouraging, especially for anxiety, depression, and perinatal mood concerns. If you ever feel in-person sessions would fit better, our Urbandale clinic is available to Iowa clients.
What technology do I need for virtual therapy?
A phone, tablet, or computer with a camera and a stable internet connection, plus a private space. We’ll send you a secure link before your appointment.
Can I do virtual therapy while pregnant or postpartum?
Absolutely. Many of our clients choose virtual sessions during pregnancy and the early postpartum months, when leaving the house is hardest. Many of our counselors have specialized training in perinatal mental health.
Is virtual therapy private and secure?
Yes. We use a HIPAA-compliant platform, and we ask that you join from a private space where you feel comfortable.
Does insurance cover virtual therapy at Bloom?
We accept Wellmark Blue Cross Blue Shield, Anthem, Midland’s Choice, Cigna, and Health Partners. Coverage varies by plan and state, so we recommend checking your benefits or contacting our team before your first visit.
What if I don't have insurance or my plan doesn't cover therapy?
We believe mental health care should be accessible to everyone. We offer a sliding fee scale whenever possible, private pay options, and accept CareCredit for out-of-pocket expenses. Reach out to our billing coordinator Mitch at mitch@bloomwomenswellness.org to discuss your options.
