I’m Candice Knauer—a registered dietitian and nutrition counselor passionate about helping you build a healthy relationship with food that feels supportive, not restrictive. I started my virtual nutrition practice to empower individuals to nourish their bodies with confidence, clarity, and compassion.

My Approach

My approach to care centers on creating a supportive, personalized, and sustainable nutrition plan tailored to your unique needs, goals, and lifestyle. I help cut through the noise of nutrition misinformation by offering evidence-based guidance that empowers you to make confident, informed choices—without fear or guilt around food. Together, we’ll break down your goals into realistic, actionable steps that are both effective and achievable. I emphasize long-term progress over quick fixes, focusing on building a healthier relationship with food and fostering habits that last. With ongoing support, accountability, and a collaborative, client-centered approach, I’m here to help you feel your best and truly thrive.
