About me
I enjoy doing marital and premarital couples counseling, helping couples learn how to communicate more effectively and be kinder to each other. I also strive to help my clients in making meaning from adversity, feeling better about themselves and being better in relationships. Those who grow more quickly also enjoy learning and are open to honest but caring feedback.

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for David M Poles. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with BetterHelp might be different.
Our first session was very informative. David seems to really understand my current struggles and I felt confident in the plan he outlined for me. Looking forward to our next session.

David has helped me to really reflect on myself and my own self-doubts that I carried. He really helped me understand why sometimes I relapse and how to not better myself but to learn that we can fall back and it is our option to rise again or stay on the ground. 10/10 would recommend him to help face yourself In an assertive way.
