A Queer, Sober Therapist.

Hi, I'm Daisy.

Thank you so much for visiting my page. 

Like most of us do, I struggled with my mental health for years- maybe over a decade? 

I kept telling myself I'd be happy when I did x and if I could y, then things would all be good.

But they weren't. 

And I felt spoilt. I had a beautiful home, a great job, an adventurous lifestyle. I thought I was ungrateful and so I kept it all to myself.

I kept telling myself I was fine- telling everyone I was fine. I believed everything would be fine. And when something good happened, then everything I'd felt before was dismissed. 

And I kept waiting. For the day I could finally say I'm fine and mean it. 

I read self-help books (LOADS), journalled, connected with myself spiritually. And they were beautiful. They helped me so much. 

But I realised I needed more support. I couldn't do it alone.  

I'd put off getting a therapist because I didn't want to spend money on myself. I didn't feel I deserved it. 

But I knew I needed to, and so I finally committed to myself. 

I invested in a life coach and a therapist and finally had the support I needed to address those barriers; not just run away from them.
