The Slow Release Approach

Therapy that steadies – not spikes.

At Slow Release Psychology, we don’t rush the process, and we don’t offer quick fixes – much like the philosophy behind slow-release insulin or carbs. Instead, we provide a space where you can exhale, reflect, and gradually build emotional stability and resilience.

What You Can Expect:

  • A compassionate space to explore whatever you’re carrying – without judgment or pressure.

  • Lived understanding of what it means to live with or support someone with Type 1 Diabetes.

  • Evidence-based interventions grounded in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), Trauma-Informed Approaches, and Self-Compassion work.

  • Collaborative pacing – we go at your speed. Whether you’re newly diagnosed, in diabetic burnout, overwhelm, grieving, or a seasoned Type 1’er.

Ready when you are.
