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. 

 

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!
