Do you only provide online sessions and text therapy?

At this time, therapy appointments are offered exclusively online through TheraNest, a secure, HIPAA-compliant telehealth platform and Spruce for text-based therapy. This allows you to receive care from the comfort and privacy of your own space while maintaining confidentiality and ease of access.

I don’t really know if I need therapy, but I need support. Do you offer a mom support group?

Yes, I do offer a low-cost online postpartum support group for moms with babies/toddlers ages newborn to 2 years old . This group is designed to provide connection, validation, gentle guidance, and emotional support in a safe, nonjudgmental environment. It’s a great option if you’re looking for support without committing to individual therapy.

Can I use my phone for therapy?

Yes! You can use any smartphone for online therapy sessions, including video appointments and text-based therapy. A laptop or tablet may also be used for video sessions. For text-based therapy, a smartphone is required.

What states are you licensed in and able to provide therapy services?

Therapy services are currently available to residents of Missouri and Florida.

How long do I need to be in therapy?

The length of therapy is different for each person and depends on your individual needs. We will regularly check in together to ensure therapy continues to feel supportive and aligned with your goals. You always have the choice in how often to schedule sessions and when you feel ready to step back from therapy.

How do I schedule an appointment or free consultation?

A free 15-minute phone consultation is available to help you determine if we’re a good fit. When you feel ready to schedule a consultation or therapy session, you may email andrea@bloomtherapist.com, call 573-450-7550, or fill out the contact form.
