Peter C. Jackson, PsyD
Psychologist, PsyD
Grief is a natural, yet intensely personal and often isolating, response to loss. My practice provides a deeply supportive environment to navigate the profound emotional landscape that accompanies significant change. We will work together to understand the varied expressions of your grief, allowing space for sadness, anger, confusion, and all other feelings to surface. The goal is to cultivate resilience, develop healthy coping mechanisms, and help you find new pathways for connection and meaning as you adapt to life after loss."

Amanda S. Vaught
Psychologist, PsyD
There are never any words to describe coping with loss and it changes everything around you. Grief can feel so heavy. I am here to help you carry that weight. I will be there with you to help navigate what feels hard to understand and figure out. Grief therapy is grounded in exploring your grief at your own pace—finding ways to honor your loss, understand your emotions, and slowly reconnect with life in meaningful ways.

Bold Expressions Therapy
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Whether you’re experiencing a career change, a new relationship, a romantic break-up, a pregnancy, a miscarriage, an abortion, the death of a loved one, or an unexpected medical diagnosis, major life changes can be painful and challenging to navigate. No matter what the transition is, my goal is to meet each patient where they are. We can encounter moments of excitement and devastation with healing and growth, even when change was not what we anticipated.

Madison is home to the University of Wisconsin — one of the top research universities in the country — and serves as Wisconsin's state capital, giving it an unusually high concentration of academics, researchers, and government professionals who collectively represent one of the most therapy-positive demographics in the Midwest. The city's progressive political culture and high rate of higher education strongly correlate with high therapy utilization and acceptance across multiple demographics. UW Health and SSM Health St. Mary's Hospital provide institutional mental health resources, with a well-developed private practice community serving Willy Street, Atwood, and the Near East Side. Madison's growing Latino and East African communities — particularly Hmong and Somali residents — are increasing demand for multilingual and culturally grounded therapists.
