Jen Becker is a licensed acupuncturist, herbalist, and the founder of Soho Acupuncture by Jen Becker. With over 13 years of clinical experience, she guides her clients on transformative journeys toward optimal health and well-being.

Jen’s passion for holistic health began in her early 20s, a period marked by soul-searching and personal healing. It was during this time that a series of synchronicities — including an unexpected encounter with a flyer for an “Introduction to Chinese Medicine” workshop (which literally flew into her face while walking down the street) — redirected the course of her life.

During the workshop, and particularly in her first qi gong class, Jen experienced a profound shift as she felt the energy, the Qi, vibrating in her hands for the first time. This moment resonated deeply within her, confirming that she had found what she had been searching for all along.

Jen earned her Master’s degree in Chinese Medicine from the Pacific College of Health and Science, where she discovered the ability of Chinese medicine to address root causes and restore balance to the body, mind, and spirit. She further honed her skills through advanced training in five-element acupuncture and pulse diagnosis during a two-year post-graduate mentorship. Before founding her private practice in Soho, Jen gained valuable experience treating a diverse patient base in a fast-paced community acupuncture clinic in Brooklyn.

In addition to her clinical background, Jen completed Facial Rejuvenation Acupuncture training with Virginia Doran (2017) and more recently deepened her study through advanced facial acupuncture training with Michelle Gellis. She is also a trained Primordial Sound Meditation teacher through the Chopra Center, blending mindfulness and energetic awareness into her treatments.

As a mother, Jen has a special focus on women’s health and understands the unique challenges of motherhood firsthand. She treats a wide variety of conditions, including but not limited to emotional health concerns such as stress, anxiety, and depression, as well as sleep, digestive, and hormonal issues.

By blending acupuncture, Chinese herbal medicine, facial rejuvenation techniques, and the principles of Chinese nutrition, Jen offers a truly integrative and holistic approach to healing. Her dedication to lifelong learning is reflected in her recent completion of a 14-month masterclass in Classical Chinese Herbal Medicine with renowned scholar Dr. Heiner Fruehauf.

Outside the clinic, Jen finds inspiration and grounding in learning new things and exploring art, always following her curiosity wherever it leads. She enjoys spending time with her family and friends, exploring all that New York City has to offer, and uncovering treasures in independent bookstores. Time in nature — especially in the Catskills — provides balance and renewal, offering the quiet and perspective that continually informs her work and life.

With her warm, intuitive presence and depth of expertise, Jen is a trusted guide for those seeking balance, vitality, and meaningful transformation.
