People and relationships get stuck in toxic patterns/cycles and are too deeply involved to be objective anymore. That’s where David’s coaching, expertise, and influence completely changed the game for myself and my long term relationship. Our time with David has allowed us to redirect our focus and energy to make each other feel the most understood, supported, and bring out the best in each other. David creates a non-judgmental environment where he empowers his clients to reach conclusions they couldn’t reach on their own. He invites us to explore other perspectives and how we approach relationships with others and ourselves. He’s given us realistic tools to use everyday. If you want to invest in yourself and your relationships, I highly recommend regular sessions with David!

David is SO good at pinpointing things I did not see in myself. He helps you become even more insightful and introspective. He really truly wants you to have the best life you can, sometimes it does take talking with someone like him to really see your own life from another point of view. Very thankful for all sessions I have had with him! :)

Your willingness to listen and be introspective makes it very easy to be helpful to you!

I have worked with David for a long time and have had numerous sessions with him. After working with several other therapists, I can confidently say that David has been more helpful than anyone else I’ve encountered. His decades of experience are evident in both his insight and approach. He has a calming, genuine presence that immediately puts you at ease and creates an environment where you feel comfortable opening up. I highly recommend him to anyone seeking thoughtful, experienced, and compassionate guidance.

Thank you for the thoughtful review Larry! I’m glad to hear that our work has been so helpful to you.

Life Coach Austin has been great so far. The sessions have been just great and so reflective. Every session has been just what it was needed at the moment and growth is showing. I do recommend Dr. David Cantu. Absolutely worth the try for any couple wanting to get deep with themselves and each other.

Husband and I chose David based on the positive reviews and waited for an opening. I'm so happy we did. Immediately, I saw an improvement in the dynamic in our relationship. David is thoughtful, deliberate and makes me leave the session feeling like I learned something new about myself and my partner. I highly recommend David if you want to improve your relationship.

Response from the owner · 9 months ago

Thanks for the recommendation! As I say to all new couples I work with, if you want change then you need to do the work. Obviously, the two of you are doing that!

I am not the most emotional human on Earth. Dave somehow finds a way to meet me exactly where i am, communicate it in a way that is digestible for me and then be excited about the possibilities of what the future may bring with the adjustments. He is an anomaly of a service provider in this space and one of the most wonderful and authentic humans i've met.

Response from the owner · 9 months ago

Brother, this is high praise. You’re a good man! 😀
