100. Sharing Symptoms

Am I a Bad Therapist?

Join us as we hear from Daisy who shares her journey of experiencing vicarious trauma and physical symptoms while working in the field of medical social work. She describes how she felt intense empathy for her patients, to the point of experiencing their symptoms herself. Eventually, she made the difficult decision to leave her job and start her own private practice. Through therapy and body work, Daisy has found healing and a better quality of life. She encourages others to listen to their intuition and prioritize their well-being, and gives us the important reminder that it is okay to leave a setting even if you're "good" at it.
