"Johnr Davidson's grief group was a game changing growth experience for me. Two years into the pandemic I found myself ready to grieve but I didn't know what that meant, really. Johnr's compassion, authenticity, gentle authority and clear understanding of the grief process was the steady guidance that made my journey into an emotional wilderness feel safe, comprehensible and deeply rewarding. Johnr is an excellent trustworthy teacher who shares his considerable experience and knowledge with a graceful humanity."

"Johnr co-led a grief workshop I attended. I felt his caring, strong masculine presence throughout, and it was very clear that he held the work with a sacred reverence. He and the female co-leader nurtured and held a container which gave me a safe place to express deep emotions."

"During the past five years, JohnR and I have served as co-facilitators of the peer-based Grief Support Group. We have evolved together, both deepening into our own feelings as we support the healing process of the group. I appreciate JohnR's steady and grounded presence, his empathetic wisdom, and his keen ability to intuit the needs of the situation, and skillfully respond. My own life and heart have been honored and enriched by our collaborating together."

"Johnr himself is passionate about his work and shows his authentic caring nature and compassion. Skilled with practice in grief counseling, I am sure he could help anybody willing to take just a little effort in opening up. I am very happy with the outcome and I highly recommend Johnr to absolutely anybody that wants to take their life to the next level."

"I have had the pleasure of working with Johnr Davidson for the past 5 years through FREED, an Independent Living Center. As the Grief Group liaison and administrator at FREED, I had the opportunity to observe Johnr provide service to our community as a volunteer co-facilitator of The Grief and Loss Program. He has been phenomenal. His ability to step into leadership, facilitate with grace and connect with women and men is truly exceptional. He is intuitive and perceptive of the needs of women and men and his wisdom and kindness shines through in all that he does. He has built his knowledge of the grief process and skillset through attending several excellent training programs. He has a gift of holding the space with compassion and empathy, allowing women and men to have their authentic experiences with unconditional support. Johnr is a professional Grief Educator and Facilitator whom I highly recommend and to whom I often refer community members, knowing that he is trustworthy and embraces this work with passion, integrity, and a deep calling to do this work in the world. We are fortunate to have him."

"My first meeting with JohnR was on January 20th this year. I was very fortunate to have a physical therapist who knew JohnR. The PT talked to me regarding the death of my husband in 10/21, and gave me JohnR’s phone number. He said call him, he could help you through your grieving process and help me find myself. JohnR and I talked about so many things in my sessions. Things dealing with relationships and my past. Going into my past, is helping me see who I am today. We have a ways to go. I would highly recommend JohnR to anyone I know who needs help. I have already sent a close friend to him."

"The moment I met Johnr Davidson, I knew this was a man of integrity. Getting to know Johnr, I learned that he has arrived at his calling for service for others through a culmination of experiences that have clearly left the mark of compassion, empathy and love for his fellow man and woman alike. Those experiences could not have been easy! He is forthrightly honest in who he is, graciously sincere for his wish to help others and just as important outstandingly competent in his field. His energy was clearly present and consoling, which ultimately allowed me to feel safe to enter my time with grief."
