A MESSAGE OF HEALING FOR YOU
You don’t have to forget your dreams.
Are you feeling beaten down? Are you a member of the LGBTQ+ community? Are you a black-bodied individual? Are you weighed down by experiences of institutional racism and internalized oppression?
Do you feel that you are doing the best that you can with what you have, but it just isn’t enough?
Do you feel like your only worth to your loved ones is in what you can give or do for them?
You can make positive changes in your life through therapy.
How does therapy work?
I know you may feel weak and unhappy and heavy. Everyone deserves to find self-love and acceptance for who you are. At Roots, Seeds and Branches, our expertise is dedicated to members of LGBTQ and other oppressed peoples.
All of us deserve to have tools and techniques that can help you achieve more peace and healing in your life.
There are therapeutic approaches that can help you re-wire your brain or help you better understand how your family life has influenced how you respond to difficult situations.
Why should you trust me with your heart?
Hello. I’m Julius Jessup Peterson, a psychotherapist based in Decatur, Georgia. I believe that everyone is responsible for their own freedom, and has the capacity inside themselves to work towards their own freedom.
I specialize in helping LGBTQ and black-bodied individuals (as well as other oppressed people) to build and develop their internal resources, draw from their strengths, and build new skills that will allow them to live as a free person. I believe everyone has the strength within themselves to heal with the proper education, treatment options, and practical skills.
