Maybe you’re struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, chronic pain, or relationship challenges and aren’t quite sure what is causing you to feel this way. I’m Holly Doughty, a Licensed Professional Counselor and EMDR and DBT therapist who works with children, teens, and adults. I specialize in anxiety, trauma, relationships, depression, and chronic pain, and I have experience helping clients work through difficult patterns, emotional distress, and life experiences that can feel overwhelming.

Shuntell Browne

Therapist

Virtual • Wisconsin


Welcome — I’m Shuntell Browne, a licensed therapist and proud United States Navy veteran. My background in military service deeply informs the way I show up in the therapy space: with structure, compassion, accountability, and a strong commitment to helping others navigate life’s challenges with resilience and confidence.

I work with both children and adults, specializing in anxiety, depression, emotional regulation, trauma, grief, and family transitions such as divorce or changes in caregiving. I have extensive experience supporting children and adolescents who are struggling with self-esteem, peer relationships, school stress, and big emotions, as well as adults who are working through life stressors, past trauma, and relationship challenges.

My therapeutic approach is client-centered, trauma-informed, and strengths-based. I focus on creating a safe, supportive environment where clients feel understood and empowered, while also learning practical coping skills they can apply outside of sessions. I believe therapy should be both healing and actionable, and I partner closely with clients to help them make meaningful, lasting changes.

Whether you are seeking therapy for yourself or your child, my goal is to support growth, build emotional resilience, and help you move forward with clarity and confidence.

Happy patient looking away

Find the right couples therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your relationship — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Couples Therapist in Madison

Searching for couples therapists in Madison starts with naming what you and your partner want to work on. Couples therapy may focus on communication patterns, recurring conflict, trust after infidelity, major life transitions, or parenting disagreements. Not all therapists have specific couples training, so look for licensed marriage and family therapists, or therapists who list approaches like the Gottman Method or emotionally focused therapy in their profiles.

In a mid-size city like Madison, your search may include therapists near downtown, the west side, the east side, or nearby communities, along with virtual appointments across Wisconsin. Finding one therapist who works for both partners also means comparing schedules, session structure, and availability. Some therapists offer a brief consultation so you can ask how they work with couples before booking. Reading each profile can help you understand their style, experience with couples counseling in Madison, and whether their approach fits what you are looking for.

Couples therapy in Madison can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to lower session costs, and Headway helps you check estimated out-of-pocket costs before you book. You can compare therapists who offer marriage counseling in Madison, WI, review detailed bios, and book directly when you find someone who matches your needs, schedule, and plan.

If you're experiencing or worried about violence, threats, or coercion in your relationship, couples therapy isn't usually the right starting point — individual support is safer. The National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.

1 Cost may vary based on your location, age, and insurance coverage.
