What patients said about John

Lily Anders · Google · 15 May 2026

I cannot recommend John Taylor enough. He has helped me tremendously in working through trauma, anxiety, and personal struggles in a way that made me feel genuinely heard, and supported. His approach is compassionate, patient, and incredibly insightful. From the very beginning, he created a safe and comfortable environment where I felt able to open up without judgment. The progress I’ve made since starting counselling with him has honestly changed my life. If you’re looking for a counsellor in Nanaimo who actually cares and is exceptionally good at what he does, John Taylor is the best.

John has been exactly what I needed!! He is -easy to reach -Very easy to talk to -Helped constructively during our appointments -Homework GRRR I have been seeing John now for about five years now. He certainly wasn’t the first councillor I’ve seen, he will be the last one I see.

John is an excellent listener and offeres staragies and "homework" that is to the point and effective. I highly recommend.

Devyn Brugge · Google · 26 Sept 2024

I felt I needed to be listened to. At the end of our first session, John told me to shop around for another counsellor, indicating he did not want me as a client.

Sarah Taylor · Google · 19 Oct 2017

John is an amazing therapist and listener and has helped me face many obstacles I had in my personal and professional life. Not only was he easy to talk to, he had constructive advice to keep me motivated in making hard life decisions. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking to do some inner work :)
