Hi, I’m Candice Schutz
Your dedicated Functional Health Practitioner & Certified Integrative Health & Wellness Coach specializing in Hormone Health
At the heart of my practice lies a deeply personalized and holistic approach. I prioritize understanding each individual’s unique story, health status, and personal goals. This foundation allows me to tailor my guidance, ensuring that every strategy and recommendation is aligned with their specific needs and life circumstances.
Empowerment is key in my methodology. I strive to equip my clients with the knowledge, skills, and confidence they need to take control of their health and wellbeing. This involves not just direct coaching but also advanced tools like customized lab testing and blood work analysis, alongside resources, supportive guidance, and opportunities for self-reflection.
My Story
My journey into health and wellness began with personal adversity—battling hypothyroidism, and hormonal imbalances, and facing the profound loss of my husband to cancer. These experiences deeply transformed my understanding of health, teaching me the critical importance of a balanced lifestyle.
Determined to turn my pain into purpose, I embarked on a mission to not only heal myself but to empower others to do the same. I immersed myself in the study of integrative health, becoming a Certified Health & Wellness Coach with a focus on Hormone Health, and later advancing as a Functional Health Practitioner. These experiences taught me resilience, the strength of community, and the life-changing impact of combining science-driven insights with a holistic approach to wellness.
My Values & Beliefs
Holistic Health is Fundamental
I believe true wellness encompasses the mind, body, and spirit in harmony. Integrative approaches to health are essential, addressing not just symptoms but the root causes of imbalance.
Empathy and Understanding
Walking with empathy and understanding in every interaction is crucial. Each individual’s journey is unique, and honoring that uniqueness is the cornerstone of effective coaching and healing.
Empowerment Through Education
Empowering individuals with the knowledge, tools, and resources to take charge of their health and wellness journey is fundamental. It’s about building confidence and autonomy in one’s health decisions.
My Expertise
Rooted in personal experience and professional training, my expertise lies in integrative health—blending Functional Health and Holistic Coaching with a focus on hormone balance and whole-person wellness. As an FDN-P (Functional Health Practitioner), I act as a “health detective,” using functional lab testing and data-driven insights to uncover the root causes of imbalance rather than just managing symptoms. Through personalized protocols that integrate nutrition, lifestyle, stress management, and targeted supplementation, I guide individuals toward sustainable lifestyle changes, emotional resilience, and vibrant health.
Functional Health
Understanding your body doesn’t have to be complicated. Drawing from personalized lab testing, blood work analysis, and evidence-based strategies, I help clients uncover the root causes of imbalance or unexplained symptoms that have been negatively impacting their lives, and create tailored plans for lasting wellness.
Hormone Health
My expertise in hormone health is deeply rooted in my own journey of healing from imbalances that affected everything from my energy to my mood. I now help others do the same with simple, personalized tools and a holistic approach that brings hormones—and life—back into balance.
Stress Reduction
Even though stress is a part of life, it doesn’t have to run the show. Drawing from both personal experience and proven techniques, I help clients manage stress in a way that supports their nervous system, restores balance, and creates more calm in their everyday lives.
Nutrition Plans
I create simple, personalized nutrition plans that nourish the body without the overwhelm. My approach focuses on balance—not perfection—to support hormone health, energy, and overall well-being.
Spiritual Connection
I believe true wellness includes a deep connection to yourself and something greater. Through mindfulness, reflection, and heart-centered practices, I help clients reconnect with their inner wisdom and cultivate a sense of peace and purpose.
Life Transformation
Having turned my own pain into purpose, I know firsthand how powerful transformation can be. I support clients through their own journeys—helping them break through what’s holding them back and step into a more aligned, fulfilling life.
