Balance & Bloom Women’s Wellness

Balance & Bloom Women’s Wellness was founded by Beth Sanchez, MSN, PMHNP-BC, and Brittany Schmidt, MSN, PMHNP-BC—two board-certified Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioners with over 30 years of combined experience in women’s health and nursing. After years of working in labor and delivery, postpartum care, and mental health, we saw firsthand how often women’s emotional experiences were overlooked, minimized, or rushed—and we knew there had to be a better way.

At Balance & Bloom, we provide thoughtful, evidence-based psychiatric care for women across Ohio, supporting mental health through every stage of womanhood—from young adulthood to pregnancy, postpartum, and beyond. We treat anxiety, depression, OCD, and the complex emotional and hormonal shifts that can show up along the way.

Our approach is collaborative, holistic, and rooted in the belief that women deserve to feel heard, understood, and actively involved in their care—not just handed a prescription and sent on their way.

We’re not here for one-size-fits-all treatment or “this is just part of being a woman” narratives. We’re here to create a space where women can slow down, feel supported, and receive care that actually fits their lives—because balance isn’t about perfection, it’s about feeling like yourself again.

We accept most commercial insurance plans, including Aetna, Medical Mutual, Anthem, and UnitedHealthcare, as well as Medicare and Medicaid. For those we are out-of-network with, we also provide superbills for potential reimbursement.
