Helping you navigate the growing field of Diabetes and Mental Health

Diabetes Psychology is a growing field and thankfully becoming more commonplace. In paediatric services, specialist Diabetes psychologists now tend to work as part of the multidisciplinary team and there are pockets of the UK where adults services operate in the same way. However specialist psychologists are not available everywhere. The aim of these webinars is to provide people living with Diabetes information about the common psychological therapies used by Diabetes psychologists and current issues in the area.

How the webinars work: The webinars all take place via Microsoft Teams, you will be sent a link for the webinar when you purchase. If you wish to keep your participation anonymous please ensure that log out of your teams account and join via browser. All live webinars allow 30 minutes for questions at the end. You will also receive a recording of the webinar as a digital download (minus the Q&A section to protect confidentiality).

What if I can’t attend the live session?: You can purchase the webinar as a digital download (minus the Q&A section to protect confidentiality), after the webinar date.
