Abstract
Suicidality in adolescents with type 1 diabetes (T1D) presents unique management challenges for clinicians. Suicide risk screening is critical in this high-risk population to provide appropriate mental health care (MHC). An embedded child and adolescent psychiatrist within subspecialty clinics improves access to higher level MHC and subspecialty provider competence in managing mental health concerns. Psychological distress compromises medication adherence, T1D management, and glycemic control. Motivational interviewing (MI) is an effective framework to empower patients to improve their physical and mental health.
