Raquel Molina-Ravenna(She/Her/Hers)

Raquel Molina-Ravenna is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker located in Tarzana, CA. Raquel specializes in helping adult women and men with anxiety, depression and low self-esteem. They might feel overwhelmed when in social settings, or struggle with impactful emotions like worry or shame. Sometimes, this distress is the result of a traumatic experience or period of major change, and can negatively impact a person’s relationships with others.

Raquel’s approach to therapy centers around building a meaningful relationship with each one of her clients and empowering them in self-growth. She is a strengths-based therapist who believes that every person has innate resilience, and she teaches clients how to tap into that natural resilience to overcome the roadblocks in the way of feeling balanced and happy. Raquel educates clients about what happens in the brain and in the body when presented with stress or trauma, and encourages clients to become curious about what’s happening internally for them in different situations. She also is an Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) Certified therapist and helps those who feel stuck in trauma reactions.

Raquel earned a Master’s degree in Social Work from the University of Southern California. She is a Reiki energy healer and enjoys incorporating holistic approaches into her sessions so clients heal both the mind and the body. She has experience working in the healthcare setting, which helps her connect with clients of all backgrounds.
