Bio
Hey there, I'm Daisy from London. I work as an addiction counsellor at a rehabilitation centre alongside training as a psychotherapist at the Metanoia Institute. I am particularly passionate about helping others find their voice and a means of communicating with the world when struggling with isolating conditions such as post-traumatic stress, social anxiety, and neurodiversity issues. Because of my own struggles with communication growing up, I was inspired to become proficient in British Sign Language. I am especially interested in the connection between our bodies, our emotions and authenticity. I also have keen interest in linguistics and carried out research at the DCAL Centre at UCL (Deafness, Cognition and Language) where I studied Psychology, both as an undergraduate and postgraduate. My other interests include the butterfly chaos theory and etymology, behavioural genetics, psychometrics, photography and the Beat Generation. I believe most whole-heartedly in forgiveness, but never forgetting, and I give endless chances rather than seconds or thirds because I believe that people are innately good and if not then it's psychosocial reasons and environmental interactions I can't possibly wholly understand that made them anything but good. Conclusively, I will listen to anyone and talk through anything, or be there for whatever you might need.
