If you found your way here, something has shifted. Maybe you don't recognize yourself lately. Maybe you're exhausted from being the one everyone relies on while quietly wondering — what about me?
You're in the right place.
You might be feeling
"I don't feel like myself anymore."
"I'm exhausted from being the one everyone relies on."
"My emotions feel bigger than they should."
"There's this brain fog I can't shake."
"I keep waking up at 3am and I don't know why."
"I'm holding it together — but just barely."
About Daisy
I'm Daisy Perez, a counsellor in Winnipeg working with women who are navigating some of the most disorienting seasons of their lives.
I hold an Applied Counselling Certification from the University of Manitoba and I'm a professional member of the Canadian Counselling and Psychotherapy Association. What that means for you: I'm trained, I'm accountable, and I know how to help you move forward.
In our sessions there's space for rage, laughter, and everything in between. I'm warm and practical. We won't just talk about what's hard. We'll figure out what's underneath it so you can move forward feeling clear, steady, and like yourself again.
From the women I work with
"Daisy helped me navigate a difficult time. I couldn't have done it without her. She allowed me to talk about things that I wasn't comfortable talking with anyone else. And that made all the difference."
— Tracy L., Winnipeg"For the first time in years, I feel like I understand what's happening to me, and that I'm not going crazy."
— Lisa P., Airdrie"Daisy helped me stop white-knuckling through my days. I didn't know how much I needed someone in my corner."
— Jennifer W., WinnipegWho I Help
I work with women navigating experiences that are often minimized, pathologized, or simply misunderstood.
The mood swings, brain fog, insomnia, hot flashes — and the existential weight of entering a new phase of life. You deserve specialized support, not just a prescription. I help you tend to the emotional, relational, and physical dimensions of this transition.
"I'm not who I used to be." That feeling isn't something to fix — it's something to understand. We'll make sense of who you're becoming.
Anxiety, sadness, and rage that comes out of nowhere. The exhaustion of being the family manager, the caretaker, the one who holds it all together. Let's look at what's underneath.
Shifting dynamics with partners, family, and yourself. How to ask for what you need — and what to do when the people around you don't understand what you're going through.
Changes in desire, connection, and how to talk to your partner and your doctor about what's happening. This is important — and it belongs in the conversation.
Your physiology, emotions, and experiences are unique. Together we'll build a care plan that honours all of you — and explore what additional support might help.
My Approach
I draw from cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), somatic interventions, and psychoeducation — but the honest answer is: we'll use what works for you.
My goal is never to tell you what to do. It's to help you understand what's happening inside you so you can make choices that feel right for your life.
I also recognize I'm not your only resource. When it makes sense, we'll talk about other providers — your GP, a naturopath, a nutritionist, or someone else who can support what we're doing together.
"Your mind, body, and spirit are all in transition — and it's messier than anyone warned you about. What you're feeling isn't random. It has a name, and we can work with it."— Daisy Perez
