Management Complexity

It took years of personal reflection, professional research, working with people living with diabetes and becoming a Certified Diabetes Educator, to understand how many things impact management. How little control I have over them and how to successfully deal with them.

 

“I may not know what caused the high or low blood sugar, but that’s okay.”

 

Helping my clients living with diabetes manage, understand and accept the impact of the many factors they cannot control is critical to emotionally sound management. It is the acceptance of the many uncontrollable factors, which helped me understand that diabetes cannot be controlled, but diabetes could be managed with less frustration.

 

Therapy has helped me understand myself, my issues with diabetes and my relationships within my family. It has helped me gain control of my diabetes management, understand my role in diabetes management and helped me realize that it is okay to be compassionate to myself.

 

It took years of effort and education so I could understand the complexities of living with diabetes to help others. I no longer say to myself, “What did I do?” Instead, I make the needed correction at the moment and accept that I may not know what caused the high or low blood sugar, but that’s okay.

 

Diabetes-focused Psychotherapy was created to help people find clarity while improving blood sugar levels. I don’t do this to judge (you most likely have people who will do that for free), I developed Diabetes-Focused Psychotherapy to help others living with diabetes get the most out of their life and the ability to talk through their issues with negative thoughts, feelings, frustrations, management issues and much more.

 

My therapy practice was created to help anyone living with diabetes. Please call (917) 272-4829 for more information or to schedule your first Diabetes-Focused Psychotherapy® Session.
