SheBlooms Frequently Asked Questions

SheBlooms is a specialized counseling service under Tennessee Reproductive Therapy that focuses on the mental and emotional needs of teen girls and young women. We support young women facing a range of challenges, including anxiety, depression, PMDD, menstrual pain, and other gynecological issues.

If your teen is experiencing severe mood swings, intense menstrual pain, or symptoms of reproductive health disorders like PMDD that interfere with daily life, counseling can be a valuable resource. Our counselors work closely with young women to address the mental and emotional impacts of these conditions.

If your OBGYN can treat it for your body, we can treat it for your mind. SheBlooms specializes in addressing a range of mental health issues related to puberty, reproductive health and general adolescence, including:

• Anxiety and depression in teen girls

• PMDD and menstrual-related mood disorders

• Self-esteem and body image concerns

• Family and relationship difficulties

• Social anxiety and school-related stress

• Navigating puberty and young womanhood

If your teen girl is showing signs of distress, such as withdrawal from activities, sudden changes in mood, academic struggles, or expressing feelings of hopelessness, she may benefit from speaking with a counselor. SheBlooms can also assist teen girls and young women struggling with the mental heath effects of puberty, painful periods, PMDD and other reproductive health experiences. Our counselors can help assess her needs and develop a personalized plan for her mental health journey.

We offer evidence-based therapeutic approaches tailored to each individual, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) and art therapy. Our goal is to provide a supportive environment where teen girls can express themselves and develop effective coping skills.

During the first session, your teen will meet with one of our licensed therapists to discuss her concerns, set goals, and begin building a therapeutic relationship. The initial meeting is an opportunity for her to express her feelings and ask any questions she may have.

Session costs range from $130-150. We are currently in-network with Cigna Insurance. If you are not in network with Cigna insurance, we are happy to provide you with a superbill to submit to your out-of-network insurance. In this case, any reimbursement would go directly back to you.
