Η επιθυμία της να μάθει περισσότερα, την οδήγησε στο δεύτερο πτυχίο της ως Κλινική Διαιτολόγος - Διατροφολόγος, όπου μελέτησε το πώς η διατροφή επηρεάζει τις λειτουργίες του σώματος. Η έρευνά της συνεχίζεται μέχρι σήμερα, με το μεταπτυχιακό της στο μικροβίωμα του εντέρου, έναν συναρπαστικό κόσμο που αποκαλύπτει συνεχώς νέες πτυχές της υγείας.

Ένα σημαντικό κομμάτι της πορείας της αφορά τις διαταραχές πρόσληψης τροφής και τη διαταραγμένη σχέση με το φαγητό, το σώμα και την εικόνα του.

Η προσέγγισή της δεν εστιάζει σε αριθμούς στη ζυγαριά, αλλά στη δημιουργία ουσιαστικών αλλαγών που μπορούν να διαρκέσουν στον χρόνο. Η αλλαγή δεν έρχεται με στέρηση και πίεση, αλλά με υπομονή και σταδιακή αποκατάσταση της σχέσης με το φαγητό και το σώμα.

Μαζί με την ομάδα της, είναι σε θέση να βοηθήσουν το άτομο να αγκαλιάσει τον εαυτό του με περισσότερη φροντίδα, κατανόηση και αποδοχή. Στόχος της είναι να υποστηρίξει το κάθε άτομο από όλες τις πλευρές, για να βελτιώσει την ποιότητα της ζωής του.
