Psychotherapy for Individuals, Couples & Families in Madison, WI

At Fortune Family Therapy, we offer whole-person, psychotherapy for individuals, couples, children, and families. Located in Madison, WI, we provide a calm, relational space to explore what’s holding you back and move toward deeper connection and growth.

Welcome! I'm Heather Fortune.

I believe in healing that’s all about looking at the whole person. I work with individuals, couples, and families to help them see patterns, rebuild connections, and create real change. I’m all for taking it slow—honoring the idea that real healing needs time and happens through connecting genuinely with ourselves and each other. With a focus on curiosity and teamwork, I mix talk therapy with body-based methods to help clients feel more present, resilient, and empowered in their relationships and lives.

Individual Therapy

Even individual struggles often have relational roots. I work with people across the lifespan—including children, adolescents, parents in the perinatal and postnatal seasons, and those navigating the challenges of aging—who want to better understand how their past experiences, family roles, and internal narratives shape how they move through the world today. My goal is to offer a collaborative space where you can reconnect with your body, your story, and your most authentic self—with patience, curiosity, and care.

I approach couples therapy with a professional and systemic perspective, assisting partners in understanding their behavioral patterns while fostering a profound and authentic connection. Instead of concentrating on who may be correct, I facilitate the discovery of what each individual seeks to protect or articulate.

I think of families as living systems—everyone influences each other in powerful ways, even if we don't always notice. When we work together, I stay curious about the different roles, patterns, and family dynamics that affect how a family works. I especially enjoy working with kids and creating a space where their experiences are valued as part of the bigger family story.
