Dr. John Moore, III, Ph.D.

Licensed Clinical Psychologist | Army Veteran | Educator | Supervisor

Dr. John S. Moore, III is an Army veteran and licensed clinical psychologist, Dr. John holds a Ph.D. in School Psychology from the University of Rhode Island. But his qualifications extend far beyond academic degrees. His career has been guided by a central question: How do we meet people where they are—and walk with them toward where they want to go?

With over a decade of clinical experience, Dr. John has worked with adolescents and adults across a broad spectrum of backgrounds: from foster care to houselessness, justice involvement to young parenthood. He has supported clients of Latinx/Hispanic, Asian, African, and Muslim identities—always with a trauma-informed, culturally grounded lens. His work is rooted in the belief that every story deserves to be heard, and that healing begins with listening.

Since 2013, Dr. John has served as both a Nationally Certified School Psychologist and a credentialed school psychologist through the California Commission on Teacher Credentialing. In 2017, he became a licensed clinical psychologist under the California Board of Psychology.

Today, Dr. John continues to shape the next generation of clinicians through supervision and mentorship. His commitment is not only to therapy—but to the communities, families, and systems that surround it.

What happens when compassion meets discipline, and curiosity meets commitment? Dr. John keeps asking—and keeps showing up to find out.

Adrienne Granadosin-Deanes

Registered Psychological Associate

A first-generation Filipina immigrant and third-year doctoral candidate in counseling psychology, Adrienne brings lived experience and deep cultural insight to her clinical practice. With a Master’s in Psychology and registration as a Psychological Associate, she approaches therapy as both a science and a sacred act of healing.

Adrienne considers herself a root worker—someone who tends to the unseen, the ancestral, the collective wounds we carry. Her work is grounded in multicultural, decolonial, somatic, psychodynamic, and behavioral frameworks, honoring the complexity of identity and the body’s wisdom in the healing process.

While Adrienne has experience with short-term behavioral consultation, her calling lies in long-term psychotherapy. She works with individuals, couples, and groups—especially people of color, LGBTQ+ clients, interracial couples, families affected by Autism, and those who carry layered identities. Her sessions offer not just insight, but sanctuary.

To Adrienne, therapy is not a place to be fixed—it is a space to remember, to reweave, and to reclaim. With humility and deep care, she holds space for transformation, believing that the act of healing is itself a form of resistance and rebirth.

What if tending to our pain is also how we tend to the world? Adrienne invites her clients to explore that truth—one rooted breath at a time.

Teresa Morris

MFT | Associate | Therapist

Specializing in therapy for adults, couples, parents, children, and adolescents, Teresa brings a gentle, attuned presence to every session. Her approach is rooted in the belief that healing is not one-size-fits-all—it must be shaped by the lived experience, hopes, and voice of each individual or family.

Teresa offers a wide range of interventions tailored to meet both individual and group needs. Her therapeutic process is grounded in collaboration—built on trust, mutual respect, and the space to explore life’s challenges with honesty and courage. She sees the relationship itself as part of the healing, not just the method.

Drawing from evidence-based practices, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Teresa helps clients navigate the complexities of trauma, grief, loss, spirituality, and disconnection. Her work often extends beyond the individual to strengthen bonds with family, culture, and community—because healing, she believes, doesn’t always happen in isolation.

What if therapy could be more than a solution to a problem? What if it could be a return—to self, to purpose, to connection?

This is the path Teresa walks with her clients, every step of the way.

Tanya Baker

Counseling Intern

Tanya Baker invites you to explore that question—not with pressure, but with compassion and curiosity. As a counseling intern in the final stages of her Master’s in Clinical Mental Health at Walden University, Tanya is working toward becoming a California Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) and a National Certified Counselor (NBCC).

Before entering the counseling profession, Tanya spent over 25 years as a dedicated educator and school administrator, working closely with children, families, and communities from diverse backgrounds. Her experience has shaped a core belief: healing and growth begin with connection.

Tanya’s approach is rooted in empathy, authenticity, and evidence-based techniques such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Mindfulness, and Person-Centered Therapy. She creates a safe and supportive space where clients can ask themselves:

With a Bachelor of Arts from UCLA and a teaching credential from San Francisco State University, Tanya combines practical insight with emotional depth. Her goal is not to give answers, but to empower you to discover your own—with guidance, reflection, and trust.

Sherrie Beltran

Registered Psychological Associate

 

As a fourth-year doctoral student in Clinical Psychology at the Wright Institute, Sherrie brings a thoughtful, integrative approach to therapy—drawing from both psychodynamic traditions and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT). Her work balances depth and structure: creating space to explore the “why” of emotional patterns, while building the concrete skills needed for change in the here and now.

A first-generation Mexican American, Sherrie brings deep awareness to the nuances of identity, culture, and belonging. She believes that healing begins when your whole self is welcomed into the room—not just the symptoms, but the story behind them.

Sherrie has worked with adolescents, adults, and families in diverse settings, including residential treatment, community mental health, and addiction medicine. She is especially passionate about the intersection of addiction and mental health, and the courage it takes to seek support in both.

Sherrie offers a collaborative, reflective space for that journey—where healing is not rushed, and growth is nurtured with care.

Kristina Berger

Registered Psychological Associate, LPCC, LMFT

As a pre-licensed psychologist (under the supervision of Dr. Moore III, PhD, PSY29285) and a dual-licensed psychotherapist (LPCC 17217, LMFT 144595) with a doctorate in counseling psychology, Kristina specializes in supporting individuals healing from religious trauma, cult recovery & neurodiverse Care.

Whether you are still involved in a controlling group, in the process of leaving, or trying to make sense of your past, Kristina offers a compassionate, trauma-informed space.

Kristina’s work also extends to survivors of domestic violence, the troubled-teen industry, and those estranged from loved ones due to spiritual, political, or ideological groups. Her practice is affirming of LGBTQIA+ identities and honors the complexity of each person’s lived experience.

Over years of working with survivors, Kristina began to notice a powerful intersection: many of those affected by high-control systems are neurodivergent.


This insight led her to develop a secondary specialty in working with adult neurodiverse individuals, couples, and families—especially those where one or more members identify as autistic, ADHD, or AuDHD. A strong advocate for the neurodiversity model, Kristina doesn’t ask clients to “fix” themselves, but instead poses a different question:
What if your way of thinking, feeling, and being is not a deficit—but a difference worth honoring?

In a world that often pressures us to conform, Kristina offers a different path:
One rooted in inquiry, authenticity, and the quiet courage of reclaiming your voice.
