David N Max, PhD

I was fortunate to work with David as my supervisor as part of my training to become a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. I learned more from him than I had from any other supervisor. He is experienced, deeply insightful, grounded, warm, accepting and challenging when appropriate. I have quoted him when working with my clients have and recommended him to friends and colleagues. I am grateful for having had the chance to learn from him and to be able to reach out to him or consultation now. I can’t recommend him highly enough.

well after reading everybodys review i really couldn’t agree more with all. this man is brilliant. you would be lucky to see him. i don’t think i have met a man ever like him. he is the most compassionate beautiful human being. i have learnt so much about myself through the tools david shows you. if you are brave enough to let him in your possibilities for happiness are endless. i have worked with him for many years, i will hold him deeply in my heart forever, i cannot thank him enough for showing me the way to a happier life and dumping all that baggage.
peace.

I could not write a more emphatic and glowing recommendation for Dr. David Max. I have known David for a number of years. Not only has he helped me to traverse some incredibly challenging life circumstances, but also to recast, the most fundamental ways in which I encounter, consider, and am affected by life itself. David has helped me to cultivate expanded capacities for presence, healthy boundaries, true compassion, and so much more. He is intelligent; he is wise and patient; he is generous and kind. My time with David has been very different, and (I would estimate) differently «successful,» than any other therapeutic experience I’ve had in the past: it has been an experience that moves beyond the more traditional relationship between doctor and patient, analyst and analyzed; moves beyond simply developing strategies for «dealing.» David is an incredible listener, he is a generous respondent; he is a thoughtful strategist. He does not profess to have the answers per se, but instead inspires deep exploration, inspires new perspectives, inspires new kinds and qualities of self-​knowledge and self-​love. He has been helpful to me in more ways than I could dare to quantify, and I am so very grateful for his care, his challenge, his perspective, and his support.

Dr. Max uses a variety of well-​balanced techniques in his practice. Traditional talk therapy, where he will listen deeply and act as mirror. Simple guided meditation with somatic focus. He might give you homework to do: writing a letter, for example. Whatever the practice is, you will feel very well taken care of, and with enough willingness on your part, you might find peace, or even happiness.
I’m forever indebted to David for his help. I grew a lot as a person during our work together and for years afterwards would find what I learned with him floating to the surface when I least expected it, or when I needed it the most. I recommend him most highly.

David Max is hands down the most significant doctor, healer, caregiver, and shaman of psychology I’ve ever been blessed to have in my corner. It’s a sheer privilege to be the direct beneficiary of his extraordinary compassion and expert knowledge of the intricacies of the human mind, heart, and soul. Dr. Max is a guy who walks the walk of the inner path. I’m mighty grateful to be at the effect of his exquisite inner journey. Sometimes it takes a consummate professional to assist with the personal… and Dr. Max is my go-​to guy. He takes excellent care of the diverse community he serves and oversees a broad range of human dilemmas, whether we’re switching families, careers, spouses, orientations, or genders. Oh, and YES, it really does get better… especially when Dr. Max is the co-​pilot.

I used to see Dr. Max 10 years ago. He really help me work through a lot of issues and helped me to decided that I needed to end the toxic relationship I was in at the time. He is personable and empathetic and I highly recommend him!
