The Diabetic Diary

The Diabetic Diary I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Certified Diabetes Care & Education Specialist living with T1D since 1977.

I created Diabetes-Focused Psychotherapy®, a specialized approach to help Individuals & Families with all aspects of diabetes. Diabetes-Focused Psychotherapy® is a therapeutic approach developed by Eliot LeBow, LCSW, CDE. This method combines traditional talk therapy with diabetes education and management support. It addresses both the physical and emotional challenges of living with diabetes, whi

le also considering other life issues that may not be directly related to diabetes. The goal is to "Help People With Diabetes Thrive!"
