About Rachel
Rachel Mattis is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with 15 years of clinical experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, relationship challenges, low self-esteem, coping with life changes, and adult ADHD. She also addresses attachment concerns, codependency, communication and control issues, and questions around life purpose.
Rachel works in a direct, practical way. Sessions look at patterns that keep people stuck - early family dynamics, automatic responses, and unhelpful beliefs. She helps people practice clearer boundaries, reduce people-pleasing, and handle perfectionism so daily life feels more manageable.
Her approach centers on identifying concrete barriers and testing new ways of acting. Conversations move between understanding past influences and trying small behavior changes. She uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help clients notice what is keeping them from goals and try alternatives in real situations.
Rachel notes her Jewish identity and Zionist views, and she can offer understanding to clients who share those identities and who may have trouble finding therapists who relate to them. This personal detail does not change how she generally works with other clients.
People often come to her when a life change leaves them unsure what comes next. She supports adults who want clearer boundaries, better communication, and more steadiness in mood and focus. To begin, clients follow the site steps to match and schedule a first session.
Evidence-based techniques and online sessions
Rachel uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on changing unhelpful thinking and behavior. Cognitive approaches help identify thoughts that increase anxiety or perfectionism and teach ways to test and shift those thoughts in everyday situations. Behavioral work includes practical experiments and stepwise exposures that reduce avoidance and build confidence in social or work settings.She also draws on approaches that examine relational patterns. Attachment-informed ideas help people see how early relationships shape current limits around intimacy, boundaries, and trust, and guide gradual practice of new interaction styles. These methods are aimed at problems like relationship conflict, codependency, and commitment worries.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and how symptoms show up, then collaboratively try methods that seem most useful. Clients and the therapist adjust strategies as progress or obstacles appear.
