Hi. I'm Dr Katie Psarou your fertility and pregnancy dietitian
who specialises in weight management
As a registered dietitian, with over 20 years of experience in nutrition, I help you get the answers and support you need, to speed up your fertility journey and prepare your body for a healthy pregnancy and a healthy baby.
I also guide you, as a mum-to-be, through pregnancy nutrition, helping you avoid excess weight gain and feel your best, so you can be the healthiest version of yourself when your baby comes along.
I know how overwhelming it can feel when your weight seems like a barrier to getting pregnant or enjoy your pregnancy. After trying diets that don't work, it's easy to feel stuck.
When life is busy, all you really want is to know what and when to eat to improve your health, your fertility and have a healthy pregnancy.

What my clients say
“Thanks to the pregnancy program, I managed my weight gain, nausea, cravings better than for baby 1 and avoided pre-eclampsia.”
You helped me learn about nutritional needs during pregnancy and adapt my diet to avoid pre-eclampsia. Thanks to the pregnancy program, I managed my weight gain, nausea, cravings better than for baby 1 and avoided pre-eclampsia. … And by managing weight gain, I was more active during pregnancy. Most importantly, I enjoyed pregnancy a lot more because I felt better... had a normal birth and an easy post-partum period. My relationship with food is much healthier, I listen more to my hunger, I make much better food choices. The baby was born very healthy. Thanks to all the good work we did with nutrition, my body handled postpartum hemorrhage really well. Lorene R, UK
What my clients say
“It’s been the only programme that I haven’t found really difficult to follow when it comes to nutrition or weight loss. My whole view of food and nutrition has been transformed and allowed me to lose weight and feel healthier without having to count a single calorie!”
My partner and I were looking for support for weight loss and overall improvement with our nutrition to support fertility treatment. We learnt more about different types of foods, their nutritional value as well as looking at how to portion different types of food and build meals and snacks to support our nutritional needs. Uncovering an unknown health condition would never have happened without the programme so I’m very grateful for that. Katie’s approach of setting small goals each week, alongside a check in, had a huge impact and definitely made it so much easier to put what I was learning into practice. I’ve found that it’s been the only programme that I haven’t found really difficult to follow when it comes to nutrition or weight loss. My whole view of food and nutrition has been transformed and allowed me to lose weight and feel healthier without having to count a single calorie! I feel now like I have control of my diet and lifestyle.” GB, UK
