Born in Chicago to an Irish Catholic mother who had recently graduated from Rosemont College, a Catholic Women’s College in PA, she was adopted, after being exchanged near the hospital where she was born between 2 taxis, by Orthodox Jewish parents where she was raised as their beloved daughter in Jewish Day Schools in Chicago.

A talent for performance led her, as a teenager, to the Bernard Horwich JCC Teen Footlighters, where she performed as Annie Sullivan in the Miracle Worker among other roles.

After leaving the Ida Crown Jewish Academy and failing to achieve enrollment at several high schools, she began working at the Chicago Mercantile Exchange at the age of 17, where she was hired by Refco Inc,. and was promoted through the ranks to Arbitrage Clerk and Outtrade Clerk.

Realizing that she needed an education to pursue goals, she entered Loyola University as a Theater Major to continue her original love for Drama and the Theater

While a graduare student in Directing at the University of Iowa she began teaching several classes in order to fulfill her assistantship, and discovered a love for Oral Interpretation and adaptation. Her thesis was a production of an adaptation of “Camille” by Alexander Dumas fille, that presented a surreal vision of the corruption behind the AIDS epidemic. After working for the Museum of Science and Industry as an Education Specialist, she met her future husband in Bar Harbor, ME and began to pursue Waldorf Education as she developed her skills as a teacher and raised her son, Percy.

After taking a class from 1st through 8th grade at the Housatonic Valley Waldorf School in Newtown CT, in 2010 she entered the University of Bridgeport to pursue a life long dream of studying Acupuncture, which was instumental in restoring her health after a near=death from abdominal infection and peritonitis at 18 yrs of age.

While studying her beloved Acupuncture and Traditional Chinese Medicine, she attended the Naturopathic Physician’s classes in Anatomy and Physiology and discovered that was an A student in these subjects, despite having only basic pre-requisites, this was immediately after discovering her biological famil, which was comprised of many doctors and nurses (who knew?). This led her to complete the pre-requisites and matriculate in the Naturopathic School of Medicine at the University of Bridgeport, from which she graduated in 2017.

In 2018 she began a residency at the Center for Naturopathic Medicine under Dr. Jonathan Raistrick and continued working there until Covid caused the clinic to shut down in 2020.

She then began working at the Revive Center for Wellness in New Haven, CT, where she specialized in GI complaints and gave colonic irrigations, having been trained in this at The Center for Natural Medicine. She continued there until the clinic was forced to close in 2022. At that time her clinic, Three Hares Healing, was opened nearby in Westville, to maintain treatment for her New Haven patients, sharing the space with Dr. Tammy Alex, also from Revive Wellness Center..

In addition to seeing patients at her Three Hares Healing Clinic in New Haven CT, she also practices acupuncture as a adjunct practitioner for Wheelhouse Wellness Center in Fairfield CT 2 days a week.

Dr. Gale believes strongly in Naturopathic Medicine and Acupuncture as ways of healing that support the natural inclination of the body to heal itself.
