About Claire & Creative Balance Health

Welcome…

Welcome to Creative Balance Health, the sanctuary for every middle-aged woman who feels overwhelmed by fatigue, digestive issues, and weight challenges. I’m Claire Stanley, and I’ve walked in your shoes. Here, we believe in a personalized approach, because your health journey is uniquely yours.

Claire Stanley, FDN-P, CHC

Rooted in Tradition, Fueled by Resilience

My culinary passion began in the scenic landscapes of New England. We embraced farm-to-table dining, delighting in fresh, unprocessed meals crafted with love. Yet, my upbringing bore a painful secret. My parents, Holocaust survivors, brought home unseen scars. Their trauma had a profound impact on my health, leading to numerous health challenges.

In my subsequent years, navigating the demanding world of advertising and media further deteriorated my health. Pushed by ambition and driven by societal norms, I ignored the toll it was taking. By my early 40s, I faced a barrage of health and personal challenges. Fatigue was a constant companion, no diet seemed to help, and I felt trapped in a downward spiral.

The Turning Point

It wasn’t until my health took a disastrous plunge that I sought answers beyond conventional wisdom. This journey led me to discover I had “Adrenal Fatigue”, a “leaky gut”, hormonal imbalances, and food sensitivities. Although I found some relief, the sheer amount of information and lack of continuous support left me feeling lost once again.

My struggles, however, were not in vain. They led me to comprehensive thyroid testing, which revealed a Hypothyroid diagnosis. This was a revelation, teaching me the value of detailed, accurate health assessments.

A Renewed Purpose

Determined to make a difference, I decided to pivot my career and immerse myself in the world of holistic health. I earned my Holistic Health Coaching certification from the Institute of Integrative Nutrition®, became a Hormone Cure Coach®, and went on to get certified as a Functional Diagnostic Nutrition® Practitioner (FDN-P). I was equipped to help others navigate their health challenges. My focus now lies in assisting midlife, entrepreneurial women regain control of their health, so they can thrive in every aspect of their lives.

Creative Balance Health: Our Philosophy

My Mission is to support women to develop self-compassion, become empowered, and feel validated with their health.

I believe the best way to feel like yourself again and get your energy back to return to what you enjoy, is to figure out what is going on with your body and mindset, so you can become more empowered and motivated to take care of your health.

In order to feel empowered and in control of your health, you need to cut through the overwhelm and understand what is causing you to not feel like yourself and recognize the patterns and obstacles that have gotten in your way so far. You need to have access to the appropriate diagnostic tests and tools. With self-love and patience, adopting personalized self-care strategies – involving diet, rest, exercise, stress reduction, and supplemental support – you can take back control of your energy, weight, and digestive health!

The inspiration behind Creative Balance Health stems from my personal journey of seeking balance amidst the chaos. Every individual is unique, and there’s no one-size-fits-all in health. I envisioned a place that embraces the diverse needs of each woman while providing them with a clear, sustainable path forward.

Our Testimonials

“I was really nervous about this whole program. I thought it was just going to be another stupid diet where I wasn’t allowed to eat half the food groups and that I’d crash and burn with a pizza pig-out… again! But I’ve been going for months and I just don’t crave all that junk food anymore. It’s like a switch flipped in my brain! Thank you! “
Judy M.
“I could not believe how amazing I felt after 2 weeks. I had no idea grains were making me so tired and bloated. I had no energy. I was eating sugar and could not give it up. I started this program and wrote in my food diary daily. I had an ah-ha moment when I ate oatmeal and felt exhausted. Since I gave up grains, no more rumbling in my stomach. Thank you. Thank you.”
Jessie R.
“Thank you so much! Before this program I felt sick all the time and now I’m feeling like my old healthy self – only better. I couldn’t have done it without this program!”
Marla S.
“I’m so impressed with the results! I’ve been struggling for years with joint pains and I thought I was going to be stuck on these pills forever, but I’ve almost completely stopped taking them. Everything just feels like it’s working better, you know? Joints, gut, brain, everything. I never want to go back to feeling crappy all the time again.“
Shawn S.
“I was frustrated with other professionals who don’t take the time to understand my situation before offering solutions. Biggest pet peeve! They don’t have much data to back up what they are saying. I am attracted to an in-depth introductory questionnaire discovery process that is then paired with recommendations that is backed up by data. You talk about the research behind an issue, like the PTSD thing.”
Claire J.
“I’m beyond thrilled with my results from the program! More energy, better skin, better sleep, weight – gone!!! Thank you so much! “
Beth R.
