Type 1 Diabetes and Mental Health
The Emotional Side of
Type 1 Diabetes
Living with T1D asks a lot of a person. Therapy can be a place where you do not have to carry all of it alone.
WHAT WE CAN MAKE SPACE FORSupport for the Many Sides of Living with Type 1 Diabetes
Diabetes Distress & Burnout
Support for the exhaustion that can come from managing something that never takes a day off.
Anxiety & Fear
Working through fears surrounding highs, lows, complications, nighttime, emergencies, and the uncertainty that can come with T1D.
Identity & Self Worth
Creating space between who you are and the numbers, devices, outcomes, and expectations that can begin to define how you see yourself.
New Diagnosis & Adjustment
Processing the emotional impact of a diagnosis and adjusting to a life that may suddenly look very different than you expected.
Relationships & T1D
Navigating support, independence, communication, intimacy, and the ways diabetes can become part of a relationship.
Parents & Caregivers
Making room for your own fear, exhaustion, responsibility, and changing role while loving and supporting someone with T1D.
There is no right way to feel about living with Type 1 diabetes. There is room here for all of it.
DIABETES DISTRESS AND BURNOUT
When you are tired
of having to care.
Diabetes burnout does not mean you have stopped caring about your health.
Sometimes it means you have been asked to care about it constantly for a very long time.
You deserve a place to set some of that down.
