ChampVA Clients

I’m honored to support our nation’s veterans and their families. If you are covered by CHAMPVA (Civilian Health and Medical Program of the Department of Veterans Affairs) as your primary plan, you can receive therapy services at Bloom Within Counseling. At this time, I am only able to support those who use CHAMPVA as Primary Insurance, and not secondary.

To get started, simply fill out the contact form here or book directly through the ‘Request Appointment’ button to request an appointment. I will reach out to verify your CHAMPVA coverage and help you schedule your first session.

If you have any questions about coverage, session types, or how therapy works with CHAMPVA, please don’t hesitate to reach out. I am happy to help.

Schedule:

Monday, Wednesday-Friday: 8am-2pm

Tuesday: 8am- 8pm

Saturday: 8am-1pm.

*I offer Tuesday evenings and Saturday morning availability to accomodate those who need more flexible scheduling.

I do not offer consultations, as I believe the first full session is the most helpful way for both of us to get a true sense of whether we’re a good match. It allows time to explore your needs, discuss goals, and experience how I work—something that a brief consultation often doesn’t allow for. However, for any questions, please contact me via email or phone and I am happy to answer them to help you determine if we are a good fit. If you would like a consultation call, I am happy to schedule one.

Please note: This contact form is for general inquiries only and questions. Please do not include sensitive health information. If you're experiencing a crisis, please contact 988, or for emergencies call 911, or go to your nearest emergency room.
