I help people with Type 1 diabetes handle the emotional toll no one talks about
I've lived with Type 1 diabetes for over 20 years, and I know firsthand how isolating the emotional side of managing it can be. Through Mind Over Sugar, I offer one-to-one support sessions and resources that focus on the psychological challenges—the burnout, the anxiety, the weight of constant decision-making—that often go unaddressed in typical diabetes care.
My work centers on what I've learned through lived experience: the mental health aspects of daily diabetes management, emotional well-being, and finding balance when you're managing a chronic condition. I provide personalized support sessions and articles designed specifically for people navigating both the practical and emotional demands of Type 1 diabetes.

Living with Type 1 diabetes is relentless — constant thinking, pressure to get it right, a mental load that never switches off. I've had T1D for 20+ years, plus a mental health background, and I help with the emotional side of this condition that rarely gets talked about. This call is space to talk through what's actually going on — burnout, overwhelm, guilt. No rigid plans. Just honest conversation with someone who's lives it.
