Meet Dr. Katie Anderson

TERU House Healing was founded by Dr. Katie Anderson from a belief that healthcare can be both deeply knowledgeable and deeply human.

Her approach is rooted in Chinese medicine and shaped by curiosity: looking beyond a diagnosis or isolated symptom to understand the patterns, experiences, and relationships influencing a person’s health.

TERU is an expression of that philosophy.

A place where you can ask questions.
Where your experiences are taken seriously.

Where care unfolds through relationship rather than prescription alone.

Patient Experiences

  • "I can't recommend Katie enough. I've tried acupuncture a few different times over the years but never really felt like it was for me. Since my first session with Katie, I've experienced some incredible healing in my knee, foot and back. She's always incredibly professional and takes the time to hear how things are going before each session and tunes in to uncover what my body needs in that moment."


    – Seth

  • "I’ve been absolutely blown away by Katie’s knowledge, expertise, and healing abilities."


    – Eriyul

  • "My experience with Dr Katie has been life changing. I came in with some gut issues and a skin issue that has been causing itchiness and discomfort. She got me started on some Chinese Herbs and my itching and skin irritation has improved tremendously as well as my gut."


    – Shae

  • "I felt better after the first session and right now the pain is mostly gone and my movement has increased. Katie makes the whole experience fabulous and very comfortable. She always greets me with a terrific smile, her attitude throughout the process makes me very comfortable and confident in her."

    – Jim

  • "I’ve really enjoyed working with Katie. After having three babies in three years, I was dealing with a lot of aches, pains, and tension, and her treatments have made a noticeable difference. She’s knowledgeable, caring, and takes the time to really listen and understand what’s going on. Her treatments have helped with pain relief, recovery, and just feeling more comfortable in my body overall."


    – Angela

  • "I had never done acupuncture which brought some nervousness but Dr. Katie was so kind, comforting, and did an amazing job at explaining everything. I feel she really listens and cares and helped me come up with a plan to healing. We worked on my lower back pain which was so helpful! I felt really relaxed after our sessions. Would recommend acupuncture with Dr. Katie to everyone if I could!"

    – Carla

  • "I’ve worked with Katie for a few months now and she’s helped relieve muscle tension, regulate my nervous system and as well as getting my hormonal acne under control with her medicinal tinctures. Katie is warm, attentive and intentional with each treatment."


    – Meghan

  • "I booked a session with Katie, and she reduced my pain level by 60% on our first acupuncture session. My back spasms stopped occurring. I felt the muscles around my lower back and legs relax and I was able to slowly incorporate normal ADL's without pain or fear of a spasm. Absolutely amazing. Dr. Katie has been instrumental in my path to recovery. Thank you Dr. Katie.”
