Is your relationship in trouble?

Using research and the science of relationships David can predict whether a couple would divorce with an average of over 90% accuracy

About David Mark


After earning my Masters of Science in Bilingual School Psychology (1998) and a Masters of Social Work, (2002) I began a career in early childhood education at a special education preschool, where I worked full time as a Bilingual School Psychologist for 6 years, helping couples navigate their child's special needs. I have been in my current position as a School Psychologist and Social Worker for the city of New York for the past 13 years, and am fortunate to teach AP Psychology for the past 13 years. I am currently pursuing a PhD in Educational Leadership.

In working with couples or children/adolescence, together we will increase positive emotions, engagement, meaning, and relationships in your life.
