Jennifer Canu
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Anxiety, including social anxiety, is an adaptive response to stress. Without it, much wouldn't get done. However sometimes anxiety does it's job too well or works too hard, making it hard to complete tasks requiring social interaction. I utilize parts work to help people get to know this part of themselves, learn how it's trying to help you, and meet needs it may have in a more adaptive way.

Greta Klaber
Marriage and Family Therapist, Ma, LMFT
When working with social anxiety, I take a thoughtful, body-centered approach to help you better understand how anxiety shows up and what it’s trying to communicate. Together, we track your internal experience and develop tools for self-regulation—supporting your nervous system in moments of activation. We also explore the deeper beliefs that may underlie your anxiety, including fears around judgment, worth, or belonging. Through a combination of somatic awareness, parts work, and cognitive tools like reality testing, we begin to shift how you relate to social situations and build more flexibility, confidence, and connection in your day-to-day life.

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.
