The Mental Health Treatment T1Ds Really Need

Episode #27

We know mental health support should be an integral part of treatment for T1D. But what does this really mean?

If we only think about mental health support and treatment as sitting in a therapist's office once a week, we are doing everyone with T1D a great disservice. We have to get creative and think outside the box when addressing the mental health needs of people with T1D.

On this episode of The Diabetes Psychologist podcast, I talk about how we can reimagine mental health treatment support for people with T1D. I take a deep dive into what people with T1D really need and how they can get their mental health needs met without therapy.

Here are some of the resources I talked about in this episode:

Think Like a Pancreas

Bright Spots and Landmines

Taking Control of Your Diabetes

College Diabetes Network

Beyond Type 1
