Personalized Integrative Care for Thyroid, Hormones, Metabolism & Whole-Body Balance

Root-Cause Care for Patients Across Washington

At Seattle Integrative Hormone & Thyroid Clinic, we help patients uncover the root causes behind fatigue, weight changes, brain fog, mood swings, sleep disruption, hormone shifts, and “normal labs” that don’t match how you feel.

What Makes Our Approach Different

Our care blends functional endocrinology, naturopathic medicine, advanced lab testing, and evidence-based treatment to create individualized plans that help you feel like yourself again.

Thyroid Disorders & Autoimmune Thyroid Care in Washington

Hypothyroidism, Hashimoto’s & Subclinical Thyroid Imbalance

If you’re always tired, cold, foggy, gaining weight, or struggling with your metabolism, your thyroid may be underperforming—even when standard labs say “normal.”

What We Evaluate

  • Full thyroid panels: TSH, Free T3, Free T4, antibodies, reverse T3

  • Autoimmune thyroid conditions (Hashimoto’s)

  • Subclinical hypothyroidism and conversion issues

  • Thyroid dysfunction patterns missed by routine screening

What We Offer

  • Natural thyroid support + nutrition optimization

  • Autoimmune calming strategies

  • Medication management (NDT, levothyroxine, or combination therapy as applicable)

  • Functional endocrinology interpretation to explain persistent symptoms

We specialize in telehealth thyroid care, providing naturopathic thyroid support and natural Hashimoto’s treatment to patients in Seattle, Tacoma, Bellevue, Spokane, Vancouver, and across all of Washington State.

Perimenopause & Menopause Support in Washington

Most of the patients we see in Washington that experience weight gain is not due to lack of effort—it’s caused by underlying metabolic dysfunction. Traditional diets don’t address hormone shifts, insulin resistance, adrenal stress, thyroid imbalance, or inflammation.

What We Treat

  • Irregular periods, heavy bleeding, painful cycles

  • PCOS, low progesterone, estrogen dominance

  • Perimenopause symptoms (mood swings, anxiety, sleep disruption)

  • Menopause symptoms (hot flashes, cognitive changes, weight fluctuations)

What We Provide

  • Hormone testing: DUTCH, serum, saliva

  • Functional endocrine evaluation + cycle mapping

  • Herbal, nutritional, and lifestyle strategies

  • Bioidentical hormone therapy when appropriate

We deliver expert women’s hormone care—including naturopathic PCOS support, perimenopause telehealth treatment, and hormone imbalance management—to patients throughout Seattle, Tacoma, Bellevue, Spokane, Vancouver, and every region of Washington State.

Expert naturopathic care for burnout, adrenal fatigue–style symptoms, cortisol imbalance, and wired-but-tired patterns.

Common Signs of Adrenal Dysregulation

  • Exhausted in the morning, wired at night

  • Frequent nighttime waking

  • Anxiety, mood instability

  • Blood sugar swings

  • Overwhelm and burnout

Weight Loss & Metabolic Health in Washington

Expert functional medicine support for long-term weight loss, lean muscle development, and overall metabolic balance.

What Contributes to Weight Challenges

  • Insulin resistance

  • Thyroid dysfunction

  • Gut inflammation

  • Perimenopause/menopause metabolic shifts

Why These Symptoms Are Connected

Hormonal Systems Work as a Network

Thyroid, adrenal, gut, metabolic, and sex hormones continuously influence one another. When one system shifts, others adapt — often in ways that produce fatigue, weight gain, brain fog, anxiety, or disrupted cycles.

Our Root-Cause Approach

This is why SIHTC focuses on whole-system evaluation rather than symptom-only treatment. It results in clearer diagnosis, deeper healing, and more sustainable progress.

Is the Vitality Series Program Right for You?

Many of the symptoms we treat in Washington — including thyroid dysfunction, adrenal stress patterns, perimenopause/menopause symptoms, metabolic resistance, low testosterone, and gut-hormone issues — don’t improve with one-off visits alone. Most patients get better results when we follow a structured plan that includes the right labs, clear interpretation, and steady support.

That’s exactly what the Vitality Series provides: a guided roadmap that helps us uncover root causes, build a personalized treatment plan, and adjust your care as your body responds over time.

Whether your symptoms show up as fatigue, weight changes, mood shifts, sleep disruption, low motivation, or “normal labs” that don’t match how you feel, this program is designed to help you move forward with clarity and consistency.

What’s Included

The Vitality Series gives you structured support over 12 weeks or 6 months, depending on your needs:

 

  • Initial 45-minute consultation to review symptoms, history, and goals

  • 60-minute treatment planning visit to build your personalized roadmap

  • 3 follow-up visits (12 weeks) or 6 follow-up visits (6 months) for ongoing progress and adjustments

  • Comprehensive hormone + metabolic lab work, selected to match your symptoms

  • Functional medicine-style interpretation of results, including a printed analysis

  • Monthly 15-minute check-in calls for accountability and fine-tuning

  • Medication and therapy adjustments as needed, including TRT support when appropriate

  • Personalized supplement prescriptions with access to professional-grade discounts

Who This Program Helps Most

The Vitality Series is ideal if you’re:

 

  • Tired of guessing — or being told your labs are “normal”

  • Dealing with fatigue, brain fog, stubborn weight gain, low mood, sleep disruption, or hormone shifts

  • Navigating thyroid dysfunction, Hashimoto’s patterns, adrenal burnout, perimenopause or menopause symptoms, or metabolic resistance

  • Working through low testosterone symptoms (for men or women) including low energy, libido changes, muscle loss, or motivation decline

  • Suspecting your gut health is affecting your hormones, metabolism, or inflammation

  • Looking for a structured plan that builds momentum — not a cycle of short-term fixes

Hormones don’t operate in isolation. Your thyroid, adrenals, metabolism, gut health, and sex hormones function as a network which is why symptoms often overlap and why treating one piece alone doesn’t always lead to real improvement.

 

The Vitality Series allows us to evaluate that whole system and create a plan that evolves as your body stabilizes, so you can make measurable progress over time.

I’m very grateful that I am a patient of Dr. Baptist. She has been an excellent provider because Dr. Summer figured out how to control my hormones imbalance that I have been dealing with for awhile. Her treatment has been very successful and I feel my body is responding well. In fact, I have not felt myself for couple of years and as soon I started Dr.Baptist treatment I have been feeling healthier and more confident about my body. I truly recommend her expertise and care. She is also very knowledgeable and friendly. So if you’re looking for a provider that listens to your concerns do yourself a favor and try Dr. Baptist.
