About this trial
Managing both type 2 diabetes and mental health challenges can be difficult, and many people do not receive care that supports both. This study looks at how virtual health coaching and support from interdisciplinary care teams can help people better manage their health.
The purpose of this study is to test the effectiveness of a virtual health coaching program for adults living with type 2 diabetes and mental health challenges compared to usual care. The Technology-Enabled Collaborative Care for type 2 Diabetes and Mental health (TECC-DM) program includes weekly coaching calls, support from an interdisciplinary care team, and online tools to aid self-management. The findings from this study will be used to help improve services for people who have type 2 diabetes and co-occurring mental health symptoms.
