Dysphoric kids should be aided in managing their distress. Not with affirmative care, but with care that helps them love and accept themselves as they are – “acceptance therapy,” if you will. Also deceptively known as “conversion therapy” by TRAs who don't know what that means.
I'm so glad to hear she's doing great, I'd be keen on seeing distress tolerance more widely practiced. Your daughter is lucky to have you looking out for her - best of luck to you both moving forward.
