Katie is a licensed acupuncturist, holistic medicine practitioner, and the founder of True North Acupuncture & Holistic Medicine. A proud Colorado native raised in Evergreen, she grew up skiing in Vail, chasing her brothers through the woods, and developing a deep appreciation for movement, nature, and community.

Katie’s professional path began with a double major in Speech Pathology and Audiology, and a passion for working with children, particularly those with disabilities. But after navigating years of personal digestive health struggles, she found healing through acupuncture and Chinese medicine. That experience changed everything. She enrolled in the Colorado School of Traditional Chinese Medicine, completing a rigorous, accelerated program with over 2,800 hours of education and 1,000 hours of clinical training. Since graduating in 2012, she has built a practice grounded in compassion, expertise, and personal connection.

Katie holds a Diplomate of Oriental Medicine and is a certified intuitive eating counselor. Her education and training include:

• Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM)

• Herbal medicine

• Nutritional therapy

• Pediatric and perinatal support

• Mental and emotional wellness strategies

• Intuitive eating and body trust practices

Katie provides acupuncture and holistic support for:

• Fertility, pregnancy, and postpartum care

• Women’s health and hormonal balance

• Pediatric wellness

• Digestion and internal medicine

• Anxiety, stress, and emotional health

• Nourishment and intuitive eating

She sees patients across the lifespan, using acupuncture, herbal remedies, lifestyle shifts, and intuitive coaching to support lasting wellness.

Katie believes healing is not one-size-fits-all and that every person deserves a practitioner who truly listens. She brings presence, humor, and deep respect to every appointment, offering care that honors the body’s wisdom and the realities of daily life. Whether she’s supporting a mom through conception, helping a child sleep better, or creating space for someone to simply feel better in their own skin, Katie’s work is rooted in relationship, trust, and whole-person healing.

What have been your career highlights (so far)?
Hands down—every time I help a mom get pregnant and safely into her second trimester. How lucky am I to aid women with the tools to conceive? Nothing brings me such joy.

What’s your goal in life?
To be forever growing as a wife, mom, and practitioner. To live a life that warms my heart: to help, to support, and to love. I want to travel, experience belly laughs every day, drink wine, backpack, and stay true to who I am.
