Hello, I’m Kate

Acupuncturist Lic Ac, MBAcC

I’ve always been fascinated by people — their stories, their struggles, their resilience. For more than 20 years, my work with people and my travels around the world have shown me how different we all are, yet also how deeply connected. From those experiences, I carried a simple truth: when we feel balanced and well, we bring out the best in ourselves — our lives and those around us.

This belief is at the heart of my acupuncture practice. I bring warmth, integrity, and genuine care into every treatment. My aim is to create a space where you feel seen, heard, and supported — not just as a collection of symptoms, but as a whole person, knowing that your journey shapes your health.

Acupuncture is a gentle yet powerful way to restore balance to both body and mind. For some, it brings relief from pain or stress. For others, it opens the door to more energy, ease, and clarity in daily life. Whatever your goals, my role is to offer treatments tailored to you, with the intention that you leave each session feeling more like yourself.

Everyone deserves to feel well — and to thrive.
