About Yan Luo

We all face challenges every day. At some point, the stress of life may be too much to handle all on your own. Seeking professional help can be just the resource you are looking for. As a therapist, I am a passionate advocate for your wellbeing, and will work diligently to help you towards a stronger version of yourself. I firmly believe that every person has the capacity to change and deserves the opportunity to do so.

My goal is to help your voice be heard. We will create a space where you feel safe and comfortable expressing yourself, without fear of judgment. I will use my experience to help understand your symptoms. Together we will use that new knowledge to help you change behaviors, build new coping strategies and become more resilient.

I earned my Master’s in Social Work from the University of Michigan, where I focused on Interpersonal Practice with Children/Youth and Adults. I have extensive training in Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Cognitive Processing Therapy and Motivational Interviewing.

Unique Approach to Therapy

What makes my approach unique? I am regularly asking for feedback from my patients. How is the treatment going? Are we addressing issues you care about? Do you feel you are making measurable progress? At Start My Wellness, we help people actively engage in making therapy as useful and user friendly as possible. We use this feedback to improve treatment methods, guide therapist training and improve overall customer satisfaction. We believe this patient-centered approach makes Start My Wellness world-class.

Specialized & Extended Training

What makes Yan Luo stand out is her high level of education and experience. She, along with all Start My Wellness therapists, attends at least 120 hours of extensive ongoing training and personal development per year in treating anxiety, depression, work stress, and relationship problems. This rigorous instruction differentiates Yan from others in the field and allows her to provide the highest quality of service to patients.
