Dheeraj Vivek Chaubey

Hi, I’m Dheeraj, a registered Associate Nutritionist (AfN) with an MSc in Human Nutrition from the University of Aberdeen. I coach adults online who want to eat better, manage their weight or just make sense of nutrition without the confusion and fad diets.

What my lessons are like

Every session is one-to-one over video, friendly and relaxed. There’s no judgement and no lecture. In our first session we talk about your goals, your usual week and what has made healthy eating hard in the past, whether that’s time, cravings, stress or simply not knowing where to start. From there we build a plan that fits your life, not an ideal version of it.

What we’ll cover

Depending on what you need, we can work on meal planning, balanced meals, portion sizes, reading food labels, eating well on a budget, and small changes to activity, sleep and stress that make healthy habits easier to keep. I explain the science in plain English, so you understand the reasons behind each change.

How I teach

I use goal setting, self-monitoring and motivational interviewing, which means you choose the goals and set the pace. In later sessions we review what’s working, adjust what isn’t and celebrate the progress you’ve made, however small. I’m happy to share simple resources and meal ideas between sessions.

My experience

I’ve supported hundreds of adults online, including people living with obesity and type 2 diabetes, through video coaching and in-app support. I currently coach on the NHS Diabetes Prevention Programme, and I’ve worked in hospital and public health settings. That gives me the experience to explain nutrition clearly and respectfully, whatever your starting point.

I offer flexible sessions, including evenings and weekends, so coaching can fit around work and family. If you’d like to get started, book a session and tell me what you’d like to change. We’ll take it one step at a time.
