About

Pathways Family Therapy Chula Vista is a women-owned, LGBTQ+-affirming counseling practice on Ridgeback Road, with licensed LMFT, LCSW, and Registered Art Therapist clinicians on staff. Evidence-based modalities including CBT, EMDR, and somatic therapy drive individual, couples, family, and group sessions, a multimodal approach that supports coordination with body-focused recovery work at Performance Plus Physical Therapy - Otay Ranch for trauma patients managing both psychological and physical symptoms. Bilingual English-and-Spanish services, art therapy, and play therapy extend the practice's reach to adolescents, children, and multicultural families across the 91910 corridor. Pre-treatment consultation and residential aftercare support serve as bridge services for clients transitioning into or out of inpatient care, and the Family Intensive Outpatient Program delivers structured two-day intervention sessions, a crisis-adjacent service level that coordinates with medical stabilization at Perlman Clinic Chula Vista when acute symptoms emerge. EMDR-trained clinicians process trauma through bilateral stimulation and adaptive information processing, while art therapy sessions use creative expression as a diagnostic and therapeutic pathway for clients with limited verbal processing capacity.
