I have a wide range of interests and experiences that inform my work with anxious, busy, overwhelmed people. I believe that self-care and community care are intrinsically linked and you cannot be a healthy person in a sick society, and so my work is truly holistic, in that we work with the body, mind, emotions, and environment to achieve healing on all levels. This work is firmly rooted in the natural world and the rhythms of nature.

My signature program, the Shen Clarity System, is the convergence of my training as an acupuncturist, an artist, a person who has struggled with anxiety, and over 20 years as a meditator.

I have been in private practice since 2013 and currently see fully vaccinated acupuncture patients at Granary Healing Arts in Great Barrington MA.

I trained in Five Element Acupuncture and completed the Masters of Acupuncture program at the Academy for Five Element Acupuncture, which consists of over 2,000 classroom and clinical hours, as well as in-depth courses in anatomy and physiology, counseling, biology, nutrition and other biomedical classes and training in complementary therapies.

I have advanced training in nutrition, health coaching, fertility, pain management, pediatrics, and full spectrum women's health

"I’m Kaitlyn, an entrepreneur and mother with a passion for helping business owners and their teams make sense of social media…

My love for the internet and social media started well before Facebook came to rule the world. As a teenager I spent a lot of time (more than I care to admit!) building websites and running blogs, back in the days of LiveJournal and Angelfire websites. From there my love of social networking grew and I evolved and adapted to all of the social platforms as they came about. I knew early on that these services would be huge for businesses and I landed my first gig as a Social Media Manager in 2010 with a branding and design agency.

Since then I have shared my knowledge of social media and content marketing with many small business owners as well as worked for some larger brands such as What To Expect When You’re Expecting. "
