Greta Klaber
Marriage and Family Therapist, Ma, LMFT
I take a warm, direct, and collaborative approach to therapy. My work is rooted in both somatic and psychodynamic traditions, and I draw from Sensorimotor Psychotherapy to support clients in understanding how their experiences live in the body as well as the mind. I integrate body-based tools, nervous system awareness, and a focus on patterns in relationships to help clients make meaningful, lasting change. My style is active and engaged, and I aim to create a space where you can explore what's going on with honesty, curiosity, and support.

Piyola Derbarseghian- Sex & Relationship Therapist
Pre-Licensed Professional, MA, AMFT
You deserve to feel seen, supported, and connected in your relationships, in your body, and in your sense of self. Whether you're navigating relationship struggles, sexual challenges, cultural expectations, or past trauma, therapy can be a powerful space for healing and growth. I work with individuals, couples, and polycules who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected, and help them move toward deeper intimacy, emotional clarity, and self-trust.
My approach integrates trauma-informed care with a deep respect for culture, identity, and lived experience. As an Armenian therapist, I understand the weight of generational patterns, unspoken family rules, and the tension between tradition and individuality. If you come from a background or a culture where emotions or sexuality are hard to talk about, you’re not alone, and you don’t have to do this alone.
You bring the strength. I bring the tools. Together, we can create space for you to reclaim your voice, your relationships, and your sense of wholeness.

Chico is a north-state California city home to California State University Chico and the closest significant urban center to Paradise, the community almost entirely destroyed by the 2018 Camp Fire—the most destructive wildfire in California history—and the city's mental health landscape has been profoundly shaped by absorbing tens of thousands of Camp Fire survivors who relocated to Chico bringing acute wildfire trauma, grief, and the ongoing stress of rebuilding lives after catastrophic loss. Butte County Behavioral Health provides public mental health services, and many local therapists have developed expertise in disaster trauma, environmental grief, and the specific mental health needs of displaced wildfire survivors. Chico State's counseling center serves the significant student population, and the university's presence gives the city a progressive character that supports an open attitude toward mental health support. Common therapy concerns include wildfire-related PTSD and grief, displacement and housing insecurity, student mental health, anxiety, and the long-term psychological impact of living in a region permanently changed by catastrophic fire.
