I commend you on being in therapy and seeing this while your child is still young. (I never did that-wish I could do things over...*sigh*) ... I think that's a great thing.
You can see what you're doing, and therapy can help you understand and resolve things so it won't negatively affect your daughter.

advice I'd give--- keep an open mic with your daughter and make sure you OWN your behavior. If she says something you did/said upset her-- validate her feelings.

It can be a tough road but with a good therapist helping you, I think you have a great chance of healing
and your past not hurting your daughter.

best to you
