Karen Sullivan

Karen Sullivan is the founder of The Wellness Stop, a community-focused wellness center and retail store in Port Jefferson, New York.

 

A certified functional medicine coach with nearly two decades of experience, Karen's work was shaped by her own health journey as a thyroid cancer survivor and years of navigating chronic health challenges.

 

The Wellness Stop serves as an extension of her coaching practice, combining functional nutrition, wellness education, curated health products, and community events to help people take a more proactive approach to their health.

​

Karen believes healthcare should focus on identifying and addressing the root causes of chronic health issues rather than simply managing symptoms.

 

While she strongly values modern medicine, diagnostics, and evidence-based care, she advocates for integrating traditional healthcare with functional medicine, nutrition, lifestyle changes, and personalized wellness strategies.

 

Her mission is to empower people—particularly women navigating hormone health—to understand they have choices, build informed care teams, and create sustainable habits that lead to healthier, happier lives.
