Behavioural Science Consultancy and Advice

Julia Terlet, PhD

As a behavioural science consultant with over a decade of experience, I specialise in promoting sustainable and healthy behaviours through the application of behavioural science.

I first got into behavioural science during my PhD at Cardiff University, and I was hooked from the start. My early research focused on using behavioural techniques to reduce water consumption, and it quickly became clear to me that I wanted to apply these insights to challenges that benefit both humans and the environment.

​

Keen to keep working in this space, I deepened my expertise in Sustainable Development and started my career as a consultant, collaborating with organisations like Welsh Water and Refill Cardiff.

​

Since then, I’ve been helping companies put behavioural science into action, working on real-world projects with companies like Behaven. I also regularly collaborate with universities, such as University College London. I strongly believe that behavioural science is a key tool in addressing today’s environmental and social challenges.

​

I’m always happy to help organisations  integrate behavioural insights into their work - whether through research to uncover barriers to change or through training sessions for individuals and teams looking to learn more about behavioural science.​

Here to help!

If you're looking to understand behaviours better or encourage more sustainable ones, let's work together to make it happen.

Research

Understanding behaviours is the first step to changing them. I conduct research to uncover barriers, motivations, and decision-making processes, using behavioural science. Whether through literature reviews, surveys, interviews, focus groups, or observations, I can help you gain a deeper understanding of your audience and identify what truly drives change.

Training

I love making behavioural science practical and accessible. Through interactive training sessions, I help teams build their behavioural expertise and apply it to real-world challenges. Whether you're looking for an introductory session, hands-on workshops, or tailored coaching, I break down key concepts and provide actionable tools that can be directly implemented in your organisation.
