Hey
My name is Camilla Xiao Yu. I’m a psychotherapist, supervisor and consultant, and traditional astrologer. I’ve spent my life moving between cultures, languages, and ways of knowing. Based in the New York area and working in English and Mandarin, I’m drawn to the patterns that shape a life, and to the many ways people come to understand them. I’m endlessly curious about the many lenses people have used to understand human experience, from psychology to ancient systems of knowledge.
Across all my work, I hold a whole-person view: that insight, emotion, body, and meaning are not separate, and that none of us exists apart from our culture, history, heritage, and the wisdom of those who came before us. Lasting change usually involves all of them.
Beyond one-on-one work, I create spaces for people to gather, through workshops, retreats, reading circles, and group experiences, where something new can emerge in the company of others. I also support fellow practitioners in the US and China through consultation and depth learning.
Two Ways of Working with Me
Psychotherapy
For those ready to change something at its root: how they relate, how they choose, what they’ve been carrying. We work with what you say, and also with what your body and your dreams are saying. Change here unfolds over time, at a pace that lets it take root and last.
Psychotherapy is currently offered through Panzica Therapy Group located in NYC and available to residents of NY, TX and FL.
Consultation, Training, and Astrology
For those who are seeking thoughtful guidance at the intersection of life, and those who are curious of continuing personal and professional development.
This is currently offered through YuWith LLC, and it’s separate from the psychotherapy services.
