David's very clear and quick to asses things that are complicated. He's great about digging in to the heart of issues and sees things for what they are very quickly from what I've experienced and I love the insight he shares as well as the homework he assigns between sessions for reflection and processing.

Im so thankful to have come across David Martinez. He has been such a great help for me in finding my self-worth! He has helped me understand certain things about myself that were hidden and needed to come out. He is very understanding and super easy to talk to! He even checked up on me constantly when I wasnt online for a couple days. I couldn't ask for a better therapist! Thanks so much!
