Το διαιτολογικό της γραφείο το οποίο διατηρεί στην Καλλιθέα. ειδικεύεται στη διατροφική υποστήριξη κλινικών περιστατικών, στην απώλεια βάρους, στη διατροφή κατά την εγκυμοσύνη και τον θηλασμό, καθώς και στη διατροφική εκπαίδευση παιδιών και εφήβων.

Παρέχονται εξατομικευμένα προγράμματα διατροφής, προσαρμοσμένα στις ανάγκες, τις ιδιαιτερότητες και τις προσωπικές προτιμήσεις του κάθε ατόμου. Ωστόσο, η προσέγγιση δεν περιορίζεται απλώς στη χορήγηση ενός διατροφικού πλάνου. Η κα Ραάτ πιστεύει βαθιά ότι η πραγματική αλλαγή έρχεται μέσα από τη διατροφική εκπαίδευση, την κατανόηση του σώματος και των σημάτων του, καθώς και την καλλιέργεια μιας υγιούς σχέσης με το φαγητό.

Η φιλοσοφία της βασίζεται στην ενσυναίσθηση, τον σεβασμό και τη συνεργασία. Κάθε άνθρωπος είναι μοναδικός και γι’ αυτό η διατροφική υποστήριξη λαμβάνει υπόψη όχι μόνο τις διατροφικές ανάγκες, αλλά και τις συναισθηματικές, κοινωνικές και πρακτικές παραμέτρους της καθημερινότητας. Στόχος δεν είναι η στέρηση, οι απαγορεύσεις ή οι ενοχές, αλλά η προσέγγιση της πραγματικής διατροφής που χωρά την απόλαυση, τη συνειδητότητα και τη βιωσιμότητα στον χρόνο.
