More about Thomas

  • 33 years' experience
  • Male
  • Psychologist

I am a cognitive-behavioral psychologist & have focused my work on helping children, adults & older adults to develop skills to manage emotional, behavioral & health problems. These include problems related to attention, learning, pain, chronic health, insecurity and relationships with others. Because of my background in language & development, I see many of such issues as deriving from “over-thinking” or reflection & self-talk. Such a nature may lead to frustrations with results of current counseling & medication. As a pharmacologist, I also have experience studying effects of physical state & medications for physical illness on mood, behavior & emotions. With such a background, I may help people separate such effects from concerns for their psychological well-being & to identify things they may do to minimize those effects. Finally, I am myself an outdoorsman, exerciser, marathoner who loves dogs, cats & horses and writes parables about them. I have supported each of those & related activities in experiential therapy programs to address the problems above. I have also counseled others in identifying alternatives when life circumstances or injuries leads to the loss of the chance to use those skills you have developed to manage your life. You can see more of my background & some of those stories in :

About online counseling

Affordable.
Pay a low flat fee.
Convenient.
Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
Available now.
There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

Dr. Tashjian was very insightful and has a wealth of research and clinical experience that informs his practice. Connecting with him assisted me with a challenging time I was going through and also informed my mindfulness practice. I would highly recommend him to anyone, particularly for a "therapist looking for a therapist."

Reviewed June 2024

Dr. Thomas was so incredibly interactive. Talking with him was completely comfortable and he is very knowledgeable and he was able to identify and explain so much of what I was/am going through. I would recommend him to anyone and everyone.

Reviewed February 2024

Dr. T is very insightful . I feel he understands the way my brain works, different then any other doctor I’ve worked with. I have spoke to many doctors, and haven’t felt they understood what I trying to explain. I believe I have a hard time explaining my thoughts in a way doctors others understand. It feel good to be understood. In the short time we’ve worked together he has been more helpful then any other doctor in the past.
