david wadman

Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor with a private practice in Westlake Village, CA I am passionate about healthy marriages and thriving relationships, so I most enjoy working with dating, engaged, and married couples. I teach couples how to assertively ask for what they want and need, how to communicate effectively by allowing their partner to feel safe and heard, and how to resolve conflict constructively. For dating and engaged couples, I am a certified facilitator for the PREPARE/ENRICH and SYMBIS programs and recommend couples considering marriage to complete one or both of these valuable instruments. This data is used to identify strengths and growth areas, as well as to explore opinions about core issues in marriage in order to find agreement and negotiate differences. Specialties: Counseling for Dating, Engaged, and Married Couples
