Finding Balance: Mental Well-being as a Key to Diabetes Care
When most people think about diabetes management, they think about medications, nutrition, and exercise. But well-being extends beyond physical care. It’s also about your emotional balance, sense of control, and connection to others.
Stress isn’t just “in your head” — it affects your body, too. Chronic stress can increase cortisol levels, which in turn impact blood glucose. Many people with diabetes find that emotional distress makes their condition harder to manage.
Individual therapy can help you recognize stress patterns, manage emotional eating, and develop healthy coping mechanisms that support your physical health goals.
Through individual therapy, Dr. Jessica Tomasula helps her patients of all ages:
Reconnect with sources of motivation and hope
Develop mindful awareness around eating and body cues
Build resilience in the face of setbacks
Strengthen relationships affected by chronic illness
You deserve to feel well — not just medically managed, but emotionally supported and empowered. If you’re ready to bring balance back into your life, Dr. Jessica Tomasula offers compassionate, evidence-based therapy for individuals adjusting to and coping with chronic health conditions like diabetes. Reach out today to schedule an appointment or consultation — and take the first step toward greater emotional and physical well-being.
