Testimonials
From Our Participants
Evan
"Straight up, if you're thinking about taking a risk with a therapist and want to grow as an individual take it with Dr. John. He has a lot of Experience, Insight, and Guidance. He helped me find my "flex", and I hope he helps you find yours. :D"
Luke
"Dr. John has been amazing with helping me with my mental health. I highly recommend him to anyone that just needs someone to talk to."
Hans
"The authenticity with which Dr. John and his team are able to offer a broad range of services with the working with the psyche, body and the spirit both individually and in group is impressive. I participated in a community of progress program and a Men's Meditation Academy at a vulnerable time in my life. The program, the therapy and the accountability helped me to overcome mid life challenges and helped to set me on a path of recovery and growth."
Graham
"Dr. John provides a great service and the Community of Progress that he runs has created great opportunities for me to grow and learn as a person."
Mitch
"The Garuda Centre is a special place. Dr. John and Ren are both incredible people, the world would be a better place if we had more like them. I have done both individual & group therapy sessions which were both helpful. Dr. John has a way of meeting people where they are at yet also knowing when and how to push. I've recommended them to many men in my life and will continue to do so."
Devon
"I am beyond grateful for the work I have done with Dr. John. He is straight with me and has always met me where I am at. He is relatable and has been just the mirror I have needed to support me through my journey as a Father, Husband and man."
August
"I love working with Dr. John!! He’s really helped me through it all sobriety, losing my kids, my relationship with both friends and family and as well as my day to day relationship with my wife, I’ve been through a lot of crap and when I walked in I was nervous to open up because of my “Man-Pride” but eventually I opened up and felt so much better."
Vartan
"I can’t recommend this place enough. The group sessions and the meditation academy are on point. Very worthwhile"
