The Studio
About
Health and wellness is about more than the gym or a diet. It is about how we interact with the world and how the world interacts with us. As a personal trainer, strength and conditioning coach, and mental health counselor Andrew Schaeffer, MA, CSCS, fully integrates physical training, counseling, and nervous system regulation in order to help individuals become unstuck and move effectively towards their goals.
Over the years, Andrew has worked with the general population, with performing artists from professional dancers to Broadway performers, and with athletes from collegiate to olympic caliber.
Services
Integrated Personal Training
The connection between mind and body is essential. Optimizing your mental health and mindset makes it easier to excel at your physical pursuits. At the same time, mental well-being is easier to cultivate when you’re physically active.
That is why training at Utmost is focused on fully integrating mental health and physical fitness from the outset. First, you’ll set goals for each area. Then, you’ll embark on a complete plan that includes one or two mental health counseling sessions and one or two personal training sessions per week, offering you the most comprehensive training possible.
Mental Health Counseling
At Utmost, mental health counseling helps you understand the unconscious thoughts and beliefs that are slowing your progress towards your goals. By acknowledging the unconscious, you can move past road-blocks and learn to strengthen the thoughts, feelings, and behaviors that move you in the direction you want to go.
Counseling, which takes place remotely, can happen independently of physical training if you choose.
Mindful Movement Training
Mindfulness helps you sharpen your mind and puts you in touch with your body. Mindful movement training builds your mindfulness practice and then teaches you to apply it to your mental and your physical performance.
Are you an individual who struggles to stay focused under pressure? Learn to gracefully return to the moment and execute the task at hand, no matter the stress. Are you an athlete looking to more easily attain your flow state? Learn how to shut out distractions and allow your body to execute what it knows.

Testimonials
“I came to Andrew totally frustrated with a runner’s injury that kept getting worse, not better. Because of his expertise, he had me back to running in a few short months. I feel stronger and more balanced than ever. From consulting with my orthopedist to checking with me after a tough workout, Andrew really cares about his clients and their progress.”
