WELLNESS AND CONTENTMENT AT HOME, AT WORK AND IN LOVE.
WITH KAREN YU, LMFT
WELCOME. I AM EXCITED THAT YOU ARE COMMITTED TO LEARNING, GROWING AND CHANGING.
This is a space for people who want to do some deep work. Your parents or ancestors want you to live a good life. If you do not know your ancestors, that’s okay. Their bloodline is in you and they passed on their strengths as well as their stress. You will be tested over and over again if you deserve that good life. I’m here to be your guide and to remind you that you absolutely do.
Your own healing work will benefit you and those that will come after you. Congratulations on taking the first step towards wellness and contentment.

Meet Karen Yu, LMFT
WELLNESS AND ANXIETY EXPERT
I've been a therapist for over a decade, and am committed to helping people transform their lives with therapy that goes deeper than just talking.
I am passionate about working with professionals in the fields of medicine, education and technology—specifically those from Asian American immigrant families, as I come from one myself and understand firsthand the pressure to be successful and the difficulty of releasing the heavy burden around feeling guilty when your needs clash with a family member.
Do you find yourself feeling stuck due to the following:
Overburdened, overworked, and flat-out exhausted with no time to enjoy life
Afraid you earned your dream job, but it doesn’t live up to your expectations
Unhappy with your love life or afraid to get involved in one at all
Pain of dealing with loneliness
Having difficulty balancing your career and delaying a gratifying life
Chronic physical pain and afraid that it won’t get better
Worried brain that doesn’t stop overanalyzing or overthinking
Communication breakdown with loved ones.
And I’m going to be completely honest with you: I’ve been there too.
My own experience of being insecure with my own decisions led me to the realization that something had to change.
And that something was me.
I had to learn to trust my own decisions by being determined to not let other people’s opinion of me be as important as my own. I was a follower as well as a caregiver of other people’s needs. This made me into a people pleaser.
And, I had to learn to put myself first. But, it felt like such a selfish act. I took so many courses on learning the importance of self-care. What really shifted me was to learn how I talk to myself.
I’ve spent my career helping people of all ages transform survival-driven patterns into emotional stability, self-trust, and thriving lives. Let’s do a free 15 minute consultation to see if I can help you get unstuck.
