Why Choose Me?
Clinical Experience: I am a fully committed, highly skilled and passionate HCPC Registered Dietitian with years of experience at NHS hospitals, clinics, private sector, digital health and pharmaceutical industry. I currently work as a registered Dietitian in Edinburgh for the weight management and Type 2 Diabetes Prevention service. I inspire and empower my clients to make positive lifestyle changes to manage their weight and improve their health conditions such as pre-diabetes, Type 2 Diabetes, PCOS, dyslipidaemia, fatty liver disease, hypertension, hypothyroidism and more!

Scientific Expertise: My background in Biomedical Sciences and my Distinction in Nutrition & Dietetics has equipped me with the knowledge and skills to provide you with the latest evidence-based nutritional guidance.
Compassionate Care: I believe in a person-centered approach that not only challenges weight stigma & diet culture but also encourages a healthy relationship with food. I'm here to support you, every step of the way.
Behaviour change techniques: I have received specialized training in health behaviour change, holding a certificate from NHS Scotland. This training equips me with valuable skills to assist you in achieving your goals by effectively implementing behaviour change techniques during our collaboration.
Languages: Being fluent in three languages – English, Greek, and German – provides me with an edge in accessing and understanding research from diverse sources. I am also happy to do consultations in English or Greek.
Mediterranean origin: I am half Scottish half Greek and before I moved to Scotland, I was raised on a Greek island called Crete which makes me familiar with the Cretan Mediterranean diet which has been shown to be one of the most representative of all Mediterranean diets for heart health. So if this is an eating pattern you would like to adopt I can also help!
