Couples Therapy Therapists in Wisconsin
Looking for a couples therapy therapist in Wisconsin? You're in the right place. Here's the dirty secret of the field: most therapists who advertise couples work were trained almost entirely in individual therapy. Couples work is a separate skill set. Every couples therapist on this site has formal training in a couples model — Gottman, EFT, or IFIO — verified by a licensed clinician.
Here's what makes this harder than it should be: a lot of therapists list couples as a specialty when it's really just one of many things they sometimes see. The therapists on this page actually focus on this work — meaning a meaningful portion of their caseload is couples, they've got the training to back it up, and they're not winging it.
Every provider listed is licensed in Wisconsin through the Wisconsin Department of Safety and Professional Services (DSPS). Most hold LPC or equivalent credentials, and the platform vets each one personally. Whether you're in Milwaukee or anywhere else in the state, online sessions mean you're not limited to who's down the block.
First session is usually together — context, history, what's bringing you in. Many couples therapists then do individual sessions with each partner before getting back together. From there, sessions are weekly or every other week, and the work happens in the room — your therapist will slow down the moments where things usually go sideways and help you do something different in real time.
If you're not sure whether couples therapy is what you actually need — that's okay. Most people aren't sure. Use the matching tool and we'll help you figure it out together, or browse the therapists below and reach out to whoever feels right. There's no wrong way to start.

Katie Fortune, MA, LPC, NCC
Glendale, WI
Are you feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, grief, or changes in your relationships? Perhaps you're navigating a season of transition—such as pregnancy, postpartum, or other shifts in your body, identity, and roles. You don't have to do this alone. I work with adults, couples, and women, with a special focus on perinatal mental health and the many transitions women experience across different stages of life. I am especially passionate about helping clients work through shame and cultivate self-compassion. I incorporate education and mindfulness techniques to help clients better understand their emotional experiences and build practical tools to cope. In my couples work, I draw from Gottman Method and Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) approaches to support partners in strengthening communication, deepening emotional connection, and navigating conflict with greater clarity and care.
