My name is Daisy Sky Shangrow, but you can call me Daisy Sky, Daisy, DSky, homie, bruh, GIRL, or whatever rolls off the tongue. I am a queer, neurosparkly weirdo who loves to dance, make music, play games, frolic through the PNW (whimsically), spread love, and hear your stories.
The love and gratitude I feel today, however, was hard won.
I grew up in a family that was touched by addiction, mental illness, relational trauma, identity invalidation, and profound loss. I struggled with self-loathing and destructive behaviors for many years, but I always knew that there had to be a better way to live and love. I am grateful for the years of therapy, deep study, and non-linear healing that transformed my life and continue to inform my work with clients.
In my work, I draw on skills from DBT and mindfulness philosophies, experiential exercises that invite body-based wisdom and play, and research-informed practices that help cultivate secure, authentic relationships (see The Healing Journey for more on how I work). The process with each client is unique and tailored to their goals and personalities.
Thank you for visiting my website and learning a bit about me! I so look forward to discovering what makes you, YOU!
