At Dr. Kate Natural Medicine, healthcare begins with listening. Whether you're struggling with persistent symptoms, managing a chronic health condition, navigating a new health concern, or simply wanting to feel healthier, more energized, and more balanced, you deserve care that considers the whole person. Founded by Dr. Kate Tackett, ND, Dr. Kate Natural Medicine offers personalized, compassionate naturopathic healthcare grounded in more than 20 years of experience in integrative and natural medicine. The practice welcomes individuals seeking a thoughtful, comprehensive approach to their health, with an emphasis on identifying contributing factors, understanding the connections between body and mind, and creating individualized plans for lasting wellness. OUR PHILOSOPHY: MEETING YOU WHERE YOU ARE Dr. Kate believes meaningful healthcare begins with understanding each person as an individual, not simply a collection of symptoms or diagnoses. Your health history, daily habits, relationships, nutrition, emotional well-being, environment, personal experiences, and goals all contribute to your health story. Rather than making assumptions or imposing a predetermined treatment plan, Dr. Kate takes time to listen, ask thoughtful questions, and explore what matters most to you. Her philosophy is simple: Meet clients where they are. Don't try to put them where someone else thinks they should be. This means approaching every patient with compassion, curiosity, respect, and without judgment or pressure. Healthcare decisions are made collaboratively, with clear education, informed consent, and genuine consideration of your preferences, values, resources, and readiness for change. The goal is not perfection or overwhelming lifestyle changes. It is helping you understand your health, recognize opportunities for improvement, and build practical, sustainable strategies that fit your life.

Preventive Medicine and Healthy Aging: Proactive wellness planning, lifestyle risk factors, healthy aging, physical and emotional vitality, and long-term health maintenance. Patients do not need to arrive with a specific diagnosis or know exactly which service or specialty they need. Dr. Kate welcomes the opportunity to listen, assess their concerns, and help determine appropriate next steps, including referrals when necessary. OUR APPROACH TO CARE Dr. Kate combines traditional naturopathic principles with contemporary clinical knowledge and evidence-informed approaches. Depending on each patient's needs, consultations may include a detailed health history, review of symptoms and lifestyle patterns, nutritional assessment, conventional and specialty laboratory interpretation, medication and supplement review, and exploration of potential contributing factors. Individualized recommendations may incorporate therapeutic nutrition, lifestyle medicine, targeted nutritional supplementation, stress management, sleep support, preventive strategies, and collaboration with other healthcare professionals. The practice emphasizes patient education and shared decision-making. Dr. Kate believes people are better equipped to make meaningful health changes when they understand their options and feel empowered to participate in their own care. Vitamin and nutrient injections are also offered as an additional supportive service when clinically appropriate. INTEGRATIVE MENTAL HEALTH & EMOTIONAL WELLNESS Mental and emotional well-being are important components of whole-person healthcare. With an undergraduate degree in psychology and extensive experience in integrative medicine, Dr. Kate brings particular sensitivity to the relationships between stress, trauma, emotional health, sleep, physical symptoms, and overall quality of life. Her approach is compassionate, trauma-informed, nonjudgmental, and collaborative. Rather than focusing exclusively on symptoms, she considers the broader circumstances that may be influencing emotional and physical well-being. Services may include integrative mental wellness consultations, lifestyle and nutritional support, stress management strategies, emotional wellness education, and supportive counseling within the scope of naturopathic practice. Dr. Kate respects each patient's autonomy and recognizes that meaningful personal change occurs at an individual pace. PSYCHEDELIC MEDICINE, PSILOCYBIN FACILITATION & KETAMINE-ASSISTED SUPPORT In addition to her naturopathic practice, Dr. Kate is a Colorado-licensed Natural Medicine Facilitator (NMF), having begun her professional facilitator training and licensing journey in 2025 through the Integrative Psychiatry Institute. This additional professional credential reflects specialized education in psychedelic facilitation, participant safety, ethics, preparation, non-directive support during altered states of consciousness, and post-experience integration. As a licensed Natural Medicine Facilitator, Dr. Kate may provide regulated psilocybin services for eligible adults in authorized Colorado settings, subject to applicable screening and regulatory requirements. Psilocybin facilitation generally includes preparation sessions, a supported administration or journey experience, and integration sessions afterward. Preparation helps participants understand the process, establish intentions, discuss expectations, and consider their emotional and practical needs. During the experience, Dr. Kate emphasizes presence, safety, compassion, and respect for each participant's individual process. Integration provides an opportunity to reflect on the experience and explore how personal insights may relate to everyday life. Dr. Kate also has specialized training in ketamine-assisted therapy support. Her approach to ketamine experiences emphasizes thoughtful preparation, appropriate medical oversight and prescribing by authorized clinicians, a supportive and non-directive journey environment, and meaningful integration afterward. Her work in psychedelic medicine is informed by trauma-sensitive, compassion-centered principles and a belief that individuals should be supported in exploring their own experiences without pressure, interpretation imposed by others, or expectations about specific outcomes. Dr. Kate's natural medicine facilitation services are professionally distinct from her naturopathic medical consultations. Psilocybin services are provided within Colorado's regulated natural medicine framework, while ketamine services involve appropriate independent medical prescribing and oversight. Participation is subject to individual eligibility, safety considerations, informed consent, and applicable professional requirements. These services are intended to complement, rather than replace, appropriate medical and mental healthcare. EXPERIENCE, EDUCATION & PROFESSIONAL COMMITMENT Dr. Kate earned her Doctor of Naturopathic Medicine degree from Bastyr University in 2005 and holds a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology from the University of Oregon. With more than two decades in integrative and natural medicine, she brings together extensive clinical experience, a strong foundation in naturopathic principles, and a deep appreciation for the relationships between physical health, emotional well-being, and everyday life. She is a member of the Colorado Association of Naturopathic Doctors and serves on Colorado's Naturopathic Doctor Advisory Committee, reflecting her ongoing involvement in the profession and commitment to responsible naturopathic care. PERSONALIZED CARE, WHEREVER YOU ARE Dr. Kate Natural Medicine offers in-person naturopathic consultations in Broomfield and Boulder, Colorado, and convenient telehealth consultations for patients throughout the state. Whether you are looking for a comprehensive health assessment, guidance for an acute or chronic concern, help navigating hormonal changes, improved digestion, greater energy, emotional wellness support, preventive care, or an integrative approach to your long-term health, Dr. Kate welcomes the opportunity to work with you. You do not need to have everything figured out before your first appointment. You deserve to be heard, to understand your options, and to participate in decisions about your own health. At Dr. Kate Natural Medicine, the goal is not to tell you who to be or where you should be in your healing journey. It is to meet you where you are and move forward together, with compassion, curiosity, and respect. Your health story matters. Your voice matters. And your healthcare should reflect both.
