Hi, I’m Dr. Raquel Grigera

I profoundly value the therapeutic relationship, recognizing it as the most significant predictor of effective therapy. I am dedicated to creating a safe, non-judgmental, and supportive environment, empowering my clients to reclaim control over their lives. Through my empathetic and authentic approach, I foster a space where clients feel at ease being open and honest.

My collaborative method involves working closely with clients to identify their treatment goals while guiding them toward deeper insight into their challenges. I am committed to equipping my clients with adaptive coping skills to manage distress effectively. I prioritize culturally competent, individualized, and evidence-based treatments, ensuring each client receives tailored support.

By helping clients recognize their potential and resilience, I instill hope and reinforce the belief that meaningful change is achievable. My dedication to this transformative process enables clients to navigate their struggles and emerge empowered.

Starting therapy can feel daunting, but you don’t have to face it alone. I’m here to walk with you every step of the way on your journey.

I provide tele-health therapy through Equanimity Psychology in 43 states.

I also provide in-person therapy as an affiliated clinician at Mind Body Health, LLC in Arlington, VA.

Equanimity isn’t something you’re born with. It’s something you build.

At Equanimity Psychology, we cultivate that strength together. You’ll learn to sit with difficult thoughts, make space for intense emotions, and pause before reacting.

Over time, you begin to trust yourself again — discovering that while you can’t control everything that happens, you can strengthen how you meet it.
