The depth and diversity of Gabrielle’s experience is what sets her unique approach apart.
Hi there!
I’m so glad you’re here.
Gabrielle Kater is a licensed acupuncturist and Chinese Medicine practitioner based in Boulder, Colorado, with a holistic approach deeply rooted in her diverse background. Originally from the Azores Islands, she pursued her academic studies at Naropa University, focusing on Transpersonal Psychology, enriching her understanding of the interconnectedness of mind, body, and spirit.
Gabrielle’s passion for holistic healing was sparked by her own experience with an autoimmune disorder in her early 20s. Dissatisfied with conventional medical approaches, she turned to alternative therapies, igniting her dedication to helping others through natural means. Furthering her education, she obtained her Master’s of Science in Oriental Medicine from the Institute of Clinical Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine in Honolulu.
Her expertise encompasses a wide range of conditions, including autoimmune disorders, mental-emotional issues (such as depression, anxiety, and sleep disorders), endocrine disorders, women’s health, and injury and pain management. Gabrielle’s commitment to comprehensive care led her to complete an Acupuncture Sports Medicine apprenticeship with Whitfield Reaves, enhancing her ability to serve a diverse clientele, from professional athletes, including NFL players, to individuals seeking fertility support.
Integrating her acupuncture practice with her extensive yoga background, Gabrielle completed a 1,000-hour yoga teacher training at Naropa University, specializing in Asana, Pranayama, Meditation, and Ayurveda. This fusion of Eastern modalities allows her to offer a holistic approach to wellness that addresses the physical, mental, and spiritual aspects of healing.
As a Diplomat of Oriental Medicine with the NCCAOM, Gabrielle remains dedicated to advancing her skills and knowledge in alternative Chinese medicine. She also holds certifications in Somatic Experiencing from the Trauma Institute in Boulder, enabling her to provide holistic mind-body treatments to her clients. With her unique blend of acupuncture, yoga, and counseling training, Gabrielle is committed to guiding her clients towards holistic well-being and vitality.
