David B. Biggs
Marriage and Family Therapist, MS, LMFT
Hello and thank you for checking out my profile. I'm a Marriage and Family Therapist with more than 25 years of experience in the mental health field. I have worked in clinical, residential, and private practice settings, and have received training in multiple evidence based therapeutic modalities, including cognitive behavioral therapy. Choosing the right therapist from a website can be difficult, which is why I offer a free 15 minute phone consultation so you can get a sense of whether I'm a good fit for your needs. If I'm not, I will make every effort to refer you to a therapist that is. If we do choose to work together, I will work hard to build an authentic, trusting relationship with you, so together we can uncover your inner resources to overcome the challenges you’re facing, and attain the personal growth you're committed to accomplishing.

True You Ministries | Stacy Echeverria Co-Founder
Pastoral Counselor/Therapist, Licensed Pastoral Counselor
What makes my practice different is that I don’t just focus on helping you cope with what you’re feeling—I want to help you understand what’s happening beneath the surface. Many of the women I work with love God and have strong faith, yet still feel anxious, overwhelmed, or stuck in patterns they can’t seem to change. I offer a compassionate, judgment-free space where you can be honest about what you’re experiencing while we uncover the deeper wounds and beliefs that may be keeping you stuck. Together, we integrate biblical truth with practical tools to help you experience meaningful healing, lasting change, and greater freedom in who God created you to be.

Advent Christian Counseling
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT (R.N.-retired)
What distinguishes my practice is the breadth of perspective I bring — decades in the healing professions, first as a Registered Nurse and subsequently as a counselor — affording me a genuinely holistic understanding of the individuals I serve. My Christian faith and regard for Biblical truth provide the foundation for all that I do, yet I welcome clients of any background who desire growth grounded in traditional values. If you have found that surface-level approaches fall short of what you need, and you seek someone who will thoughtfully and faithfully accompany you through life's more difficult terrain, I would be honored to speak with you.
