John Allan Whitacre is an Associate Marriage and Family Therapist with the Clear Behavioral Health PHP/IOP program, where he supports clients through intensive outpatient and partial hospitalization levels of care. He holds a bachelor’s degree in social work and earned his master’s degree from the Fuller Graduate School of Psychology.
John specializes in working with individuals experiencing PTSD and intrusive or obsessive thinking patterns. He utilizes EMDR as a core modality, integrating additional evidence-based approaches to tailor treatment to each client’s needs. His therapeutic style emphasizes safety, attunement, and helping clients access resilience through structured, trauma-informed care.
Outside of the therapy room, John enjoys spending time outdoors in any form—whether playing disc golf, hiking local trails, or heading out on multi-day backpacking trips.
