Hello from Full Circle Family Therapy! 

We’re so glad you’re here. Full Circle Family is a therapy practice on the near west side of Madison, specializing in relationships in all their complexity. 

When people hear “relationship therapy,” they often think of romantic partnerships—and that’s certainly part of what we do. We help individuals and couples navigate every stage of romantic relationships, from dating and pre-marital counseling to couples therapy, sex therapy, and even making the difficult decision of whether to stay together or move on. 

But relationships extend far beyond romance. We also work with families—co-parents, parents and children, siblings, and more—to build stronger connections and navigate challenges. 

And let’s not forget the most important relationship of all: the one you have with yourself. Individual therapy can help you gain clarity, confidence, and self-understanding, whether you're working through personal challenges or looking to break unhealthy patterns in relationships. 

What Makes Us Different 

Our team brings something unique to the table. All of our therapists are, or have been, divorce mediators at our sister company, Madison Divorce Mediation. This means we have firsthand experience with the patterns that cause relationships to fracture, as well as the challenges of navigating those tough moments. 

Mediation has shaped our approach to therapy in powerful ways. It requires us to be direct, engaged, and skilled at helping people move forward when they feel stuck. We balance emotional support with goal-oriented work, helping clients have difficult conversations while staying connected. 

In therapy, this translates to a style that is both compassionate and action focused. We don’t just listen—we help you identify unhelpful patterns, build new ways of responding, and create meaningful change. 

Meet Our Team 

We may be biased, but we think our therapists—Ted, Karla, and John—are pretty incredible. Not only are they skilled professionals, but they genuinely enjoy working together, bringing warmth, humor, and a range of strengths to our practice.

No matter what brings you here, we’re ready to support you in creating the strong, healthy relationships you deserve.
