My cursory experience with sourdough baking taught me that yeasts(candida auris is a yeast)are all around us all the time, and that it's all about creating the conditions that lets the desirable ones outcompete the undesirable ones.

I wonder if such an approach could work here.

Thanks to your comment I just learned from the internet that some people use brewer's yeast and yogurt to make skin masks! (no idea if that would help with candida infections, but I thought it was interesting)
Well, our copious use of antifungals seems to be doing the opposite, so I'd say it's worth a try.
