ReVive 5 Diabetes Training Program:

A Person-Centered Approach to Diabetes Distress & Glucose Management

Unlock insights for managing diabetes distress with the experts!

"ReVive 5" breathes new life into our relationship with diabetes, bringing a fresh perspective to both the person with diabetes and the provider.

In this transformative two-part training, Coach Beverly Thomassian, RN, MPH, CDCES, BC-ADM, is joined by leading experts Larry Fisher, Ph.D., ABPP, and Susan Guzman, Ph.D, to guide you through the ReVive 5 framework—designed to integrate emotional well-being and glucose data into person-centered diabetes care.

Based on the results of the EMBARK Trial, led by Dr. Fisher and Dr. Guzman, it is clear that assessing and addressing Diabetes distress needs to move to the top of our priority list. This program will provide you with the tools and approaches used in the Embark trial, so you can effectively address distress in your practice and improve care outcomes!

With the ADA Standards of Care now recommending annual screening for diabetes distress, this training provides essential tools to meet that standard. You'll leave with practical, evidence-based strategies to help individuals feel seen, supported, and empowered in their diabetes journey.
