David has been great in helping me deal with my issues while providing tools to help me develop my emotional intelligence in which I have constantly struggled with! He listens and provides insight and guidance while also connecting on a personal level through his own experiences. I highly recommend him to anyone struggling with depression/ anxiety or relationship issues.

Dr. Markowitz is unbelievably gifted, yet grounded, and his advice feels more like stories with lessons rather than cold analysis. The best therapist I have ever worked with. Hands down. I could not recommend him higher.

David is a caring, personable and insightful therapist who is easy to talk to- I would recommend him for someone who has had problems with therapists being too distant or clinical. It is a pleasure to wok with David and I feel he has been helpful to me.
