Center for Mindful Relationships

Mental Health

About

Founded in 2012 as a nonprofit counseling agency, Center for Mindful Relationships provides individual, couples, and family therapy on First Avenue in downtown San Diego's Bankers Hill district. The clinical team uses Compassion Based Awareness Therapy, a proprietary modality blending mindfulness practice with traditional psychotherapy that shares philosophical roots with the breath-and-movement disciplines taught at CorePower Yoga - Little Italy. CFMR maintains LGBTQ+-affirming and transgender-safespace designations, structuring intake protocols and treatment plans to reflect the identity-specific stressors that sexual and gender minorities navigate in clinical settings. The agency's training component supervises associate-level therapists in CBAT methodology, building a pipeline of clinicians who integrate somatic awareness into talk therapy—an approach that dovetails with the neuromusculoskeletal stress-reduction work at Swell Chiropractic in Bankers Hill. Complex relational cases utilize structured CBAT interventions combining body-scan mindfulness sequences with cognitive reappraisal techniques to interrupt automatic threat responses rooted in attachment-system dysregulation.
