Five Five & Ugly

Steven was very thorough and professional. He took the time to explain every step. His work is very detailed and he is a perfectionist. I was very comfortable and relaxed. I was pleasantly surprised by how awesome his shop was. Very high end and super clean. My experience was amazing and Steven was the perfect choice for me.

My boyfriend and I had matching tattoos done recently with Steve; we will now be clients of his for life. Not only were our tattoos exactly what we wanted, but he also went out of his way to make us feel comfortable in his studio and explain everything to us from start to finish. His studio is designed kind of like an art loft; which was a nice change from the typical tourist trap tattoo shop with generic art all over the walls. We really liked Steve as a person and we thought our experience with him was top notch. I would recommend Catharsis whole-heartedly to anyone who asked where the best place in Naples to get a tattoo is.

Steven did such an amazing job on my tattoo. I came to him with a vague idea and he turned what I knew I wanted into an incredibly detailed piece! He’s clean, professional, respectful of time, and very detail oriented- everything you could ask for in a tattoo artist! My tattoo is three weeks healed now and I get compliments everyday on it. Highly recommend.

I am 75 years old and finally gave into getting my first tattoo. I wanted something to symbolize what has been most important to me over the years. I visited two tattoo studios in Naples, Florida before consulting with Catharsis and Steven Gabriele. I outlined in detail what I was looking for in a tattoo. Every detail with the first two studios was met with a resounding " Can't do that ", "No that is impossible to do"! Then I met with Steven Gabriele at Catharsis and everything went from a Can't do to " Yes I can do"! Steven and I exchanged openly design thoughts and ideas. He was very interested in what I had in mind and equally interested in turning them into a great piece of art. Naples, Florida is a very special and unique place. If you are looking for a tattoo that is truly special, classy, sophisticated, a real piece of tattoo art I am pleased to highly recommend CATHARSIS! My first tattoo after 75 years turned out to be a great experience.

BEST EXPERIENCE EVER!!! I will start by saying that it is incredibly refreshing to meet a tattoo artist that is able to take your idea and not only tailor it but put an amazingly refined twist that suits your body. Stevens attention to detail and natural ability take an idea and make it come to life even more fantastic than imagined is truly a gift. i have several tattoos, this was my first from Steven and i will not being going anywhere else again. He has gained a lifetime client. Its not only his work but the entire experience is truly one of a kind. From the concierge feel of being in a beautiful private setting no distractions complete comfort all the way to the most advanced equipment and techniques Catharsis Tattoo really does stand alone. this is my favorite tattoo by far and i look forward to my next session... cant stop looking at it.

Great experience! Super skillfully artist that is both patient and intrequet. Don't hesitate to give him a shot.

steven has been my tattoo artist for almost 4 years now and my level of excitement for new tattoos continues to increase. i’m convinced this man can do anything, his talent is immeasurable. the amount of time and energy he puts into his artwork really shows. i get compliments on my tattoos everywhere i go. with that being said not only is his work amazing, his studio is immaculate. the floors are beautiful and the vibe is welcoming. being tattooed in a private setting makes the whole experience even better. steven is the bomb :)

Sometimes you have to trust your gut, and I knew instantly that Catharsis was where I needed to get my first tattoo. Steven is instantly likeable, easy going, and perfectly professional. His childlike love for his creativity and skill is infectious; artists should love what they do and be appreciated for it! If you're anxious about getting a tattoo, but have always dreamed of finally going for it, put your trust in Steven. My dog is dying of terminal illness and he has completely done her justice.

Had an absolute blast working with Steven. He runs his shop in the best way possible: private and focused on your experience. Plus the atmosphere is great. He’s focused on making sure you get the best tattoo that he can give you, and his shop is very welcoming. We will be back for sure.

Steven did an awesome job with my tattoo! Super stoked as to how it looks! I’d for sure go back and get another from him! His studio was also super clean and had a cool modern look. I had a great time getting my tattoo from him!
