Brief Summary: The effectiveness of cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) for adolescents with type 1 diabetes will be tested. This structured, time-limited, problem-orientated therapy will be used to impact on psychosocial factors influencing diabetic control, with the patient and therapist working together on specific goals to develop adaptive strategies.
Detailed Description: Ninety 11-16 year olds with T1DM (duration \>1 year), attending paediatric diabetes outpatient clinics based in 4 centres in South-West England, UK, will be recruited to a randomised controlled trial of one to one sessions of CBT versus non-directive supportive counselling. Participants will attend up to 6 sessions (weekly) with either a CBT therapist or a counsellor, with 2 further sessions at 6 and 12 months. Follow up will continue for 12 months post intervention. HbA1c is the primary outcome measure. Psychological measures will also be measured.
