Practitioner record · Checked 9 Oct 2026
Eben Rogers has been in practice 10 years and is licensed in California. Eben lists relationship issues, family conflicts and grief among 29 subjects on the BetterHelp roster.
Everything below is either quoted from Eben's own BetterHelp listing, taken from public licensing records, or written by Maker Therapy and labelled as such. Nothing here is an availability promise, a review, or a rating.
01 · Who Eben works with
Eben lists 5 specialisms and 24 further focus areas. Specialisms are the subjects Eben chose to list first, which is the closest a listing gets to “this is my actual practice”.
02 · In Eben's own words
Reproduced in full and unedited - not summarised, not tightened, not rewritten in a house voice.
For the past 10 years, I have worked as a private psychotherapist in Santa Cruz County, serving individuals, couples, and families, facing a variety of challenges, such as relationship issues, stress, anxiety, depression, autism, and grief and loss. I have been a therapist at Mountain Elementary School in Soquel, California, where I did individual psychotherapy with students and group therapy with families and facilitate social learning groups. I have also had the privilege of working with the Listen Foundation, a local, non-profit organization that provides residential care to adults with autism, Down Syndrome and other developmental disabilities.
Prior to serving clients in private practice, I was a social worker in a level-12 residential treatment facility for emotionally-disturbed children and adolescents. My clients came from diverse cultural, social, and economic backgrounds and required similarly diverse interventions. Using techniques such as cognitive behavioral therapy and solution-focused therapies, I engaged my clients to take control of their lives. In addition to orchestrating and providing group and individual therapy for my clients, I acted as a liaison between my clients and social services providers, medical providers, and teachers. This experience taught me to work collaboratively within a therapeutic team. I draw on this experience now to help clients who need a therapist who can interface with other systems, including schools, the courts, or other mental health clinicians.
Before becoming a licensed psychotherapist, I earned a Bachelor of Arts degree in American Studies from the University of California at Santa Cruz and worked as substitute teacher. I am grateful to live in Santa Cruz, where I immerse myself as often as possible in the incredible ecosystems on our doorstep, from the forest and rivers of the Santa Cruz Mountain to the Monterey Bay. I enjoy traveling, hiking, surfing, and spending quality time with my family, including my wife and our two daughters (ages 9 and 16).

03 · What happens next
Eben practises through BetterHelp, so the route in is BetterHelp's. This is that sequence, written by Maker Therapy from the platform's published process - not a description of Eben's own practice, and not a promise about how quickly anything happens.
BetterHelp opens with a set of questions about what you are dealing with, what you want from therapy, and any preferences on the therapist. You are not booking Eben at this point.
BetterHelp matches algorithmically by default, so asking for Eben is a step you have to take. There is a field for requesting a specific therapist during sign-up, and you can switch afterwards from your account. Starting from a link on this page does not by itself assign you to Eben.
You will be offered somebody else rather than put on a waitlist. Worth knowing, because it is easy to assume a match is the person you asked for.
A first session is typically history and orientation: what brought you, what has been tried, what you want to be different. It is also where the questions in the next section belong.
Changing therapist on BetterHelp does not need a reason. A first session that does not click is common and is not a verdict on therapy. That option existing is the main practical difference between a platform and a private practice.
04 · Before you commit
Built from what Eben actually lists, so they are answerable and specific rather than generic. Maker Therapy's, not Eben's - Eben has not seen them and is under no obligation to answer any of them.
“How do you decide when someone is ready to work on a traumatic memory itself?”
Pacing is the biggest safety question in trauma work. A clear, unhurried answer here matters more than any credential.
“How do you handle the gap between sessions if something comes up?”
On BetterHelp this varies a great deal by therapist. Better to know the rhythm now than to discover it on a bad week.

06 · Provenance
Eben's name, credential, state, subjects, approaches and biography are read from BetterHelp's therapist roster, which Maker Therapy re-reads once a day; this page reflects the reading taken on 9 Oct 2026. The licence number and NPI are cross-checked against public registers.
The plain-English method descriptions, the first-session walkthrough and the questions are written by Maker Therapy and labelled as such wherever they appear.
Maker Therapy is not BetterHelp, does not take bookings, and has not met Eben. There are no reviews or ratings on this page because we have no way to verify one. If you start therapy through a link here, we may be paid a commission - it does not change your price and it does not affect who appears here or in what order.
