Holistic therapy practice at 2255 Avenida De La Playa, Suite 4A, La Jolla, CA 92037, in the La Jolla Shores corridor — the only mental health provider on the Avenida, geographically removed from the Holiday Ct psychiatric complex where practices like Center Point Medicine and Kadima Neuropsychiatry cluster together. Founded by therapist Nicole Kahn, Mindful Guides offers individual, teen, couples, and family counseling for depression, anxiety, grief, trauma, addiction recovery, weight management, and chronic pain through modalities including somatic therapy, EMDR, breathwork, guided imagery, and mindfulness-based interventions. The practice maintains a referral network with naturopathic doctors, acupuncturists, nutritionists, and chiropractors, reflecting an integrative philosophy that pairs talk therapy with complementary wellness providers. Adolescents in the La Jolla Shores area whose challenges require a higher level of care than weekly outpatient therapy step up to the IOP programming at Protected Roots Integrative Treatment Center on Herschel Ave, which specializes in teens aged 12-17 with mood disorders, behavioral problems, and substance use.
