Practitioner record · Checked 9 Oct 2026
Rachel Mattis has been in practice 15 years and is licensed in Texas. Rachel lists stress, Anxiety, relationship issues and self esteem among 20 subjects on the BetterHelp roster.
Everything below is either quoted from Rachel'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 Rachel works with
Rachel lists 5 specialisms and 15 further focus areas. Specialisms are the subjects Rachel chose to list first, which is the closest a listing gets to “this is my actual practice”.
02 · In Rachel's own words
Reproduced in full and unedited - not summarised, not tightened, not rewritten in a house voice.
I specialize in issues including relationship challenges, setting healthy boundaries, managing anxiety, overcoming perfectionism, shedding people-pleasing tendencies, and adapting to major life changes, as well as adult ADHD. If you're currently navigating any of these aspects of life, I am confident that we can work together to help you rediscover joy and contentment. I identify as Jewish and as a Zionist. While this does not inform my general practice, I can and would be honored to offer a safe space to clients of similar identities who may have difficulty finding safe therapeutic spaces or feeling understood. I realize that no two people are the same, and therapy with me is tailored to meet your specific needs and preferences as an individual. My therapy approach involves supporting you in uncovering barriers in your life, such as early life experiences, unproductive behavior patterns, and internalized beliefs guide you toward a happier, more fulfilling life. You may be initially hesitant to seek out help and support, but when you do, you will know that you are taking a courageous first step towards getting to a better place and being a better you. If you’re interested in rediscovering happiness and fulfillment, I’d love to work with you every step of the way. Please contact me today!

03 · What happens next
Rachel 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 Rachel'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 Rachel at this point.
BetterHelp matches algorithmically by default, so asking for Rachel 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 Rachel.
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 Rachel actually lists, so they are answerable and specific rather than generic. Maker Therapy's, not Rachel's - Rachel has not seen them and is under no obligation to answer any of them.
“With 15 years in, what has changed most in how you work?”
Long experience is only an advantage if it has been examined. This tends to surface whether it has.
“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.
