Many of my current clients are self starters, passionate people who care greatly for their communities. In our work together it is an appropriate space to explore entrepreneurship or career enhancement. Lastly it is important to share that at the foundation of mental health often comes nutrition; the basics of food, sleep and movement. The relationship between nutrition and mental health is well documented.

If I am not in my office or at home I am on the pickle ball courts or hiking in nature. Take care and talk soon.

Trauma and PTSD
Peter C. Jackson, PsyD
Psychologist, PsyD
The effects of trauma can be isolating and deeply disorienting, often manifesting as anxiety, disconnection, or overwhelming emotional surges. My practice offers a gentle, client-centered approach to healing from trauma and PTSD. We will focus on establishing a profound sense of inner and outer safety, gradually exploring and integrating your experiences. This process cultivates self-compassion, strengthens your capacity for emotional regulation, and empowers you to restore your sense of wholeness, allowing you to live with greater freedom, connection, and well-being.

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.
