About online counseling

Online counseling allows you to receive care from an online 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.

Overall

He's great!

Tom is an amazing listener and knows exactly how to respond to your questions. He gradually made me feel more comfortable speaking about my issues with him as our session progressed. Thank you Tom

He is understanding and has a gentle way of approaching my problems and give me advice.

He is an incredible listener, gets back to me very quickly and is always on time with his sessions. I truly am grateful to have someone like him as my therapist because I feel like he listens to my concerns and doesn't make me feel judged or anything of the sort. I would absolutely recommend him to anyone seeking therapy for multiple reasons because I know that not only is he good at his job, but he genuinely cares about his patients.

After two sessions I still think he is great.

Excellent listener. Very kind

Had a wonderful first session with Dr. Malek-Jones. He was able to categorize and hone in on my goals of therapy so that I can have even better success in sessions to come. Thank you for getting me excited about therapy doc!

I am in the mental health profession. Tom is a wonderful understanding, engaging, attentive, and empathic therapist. He always gives great feedback and suggestions. I cannot say enough good things about him. Highly recommended.

Thomas is a great listener and always in a good mood. He has helped keep me calm and working towards my goals all while feeling more like I am talking to a friend rather than a therapist. I am very impressed.

Tom is a great therapist who really listens to you and if you need a day off of talking about the hard stuff he’s there to give you a good and simple conversation as well

Highly recommend. Friendly, knowledgeable, compassionate

Great therapist. This app is a god send.

Tom has made therapy very enjoyable. I couldn’t have been matched with a better therapist!

I've been working with Tom now for nearly 9 months. His responses are always Timely and his guidance really enables me to self reflect on situations and consider alternative ways of looking at them. He has become my trusted advisor and every sense of the word and I am grateful for him!

He is a good listener, caring peaceful Therapist. Thanks.

I consider myself very fortunate to have Tom as my therapist! Every sessions has provided me with great tools and support that I can readily use in my everyday life.

Whenever a multitude of issues need to be addressed, Tom always manages to help me realize how manageable it all is. Ever since I've been attending appointments with him, my anxious feelings are easy to maintain, a direction in life has been more clear, and my confidence has skyrocketed! I don't think I could be any happier or ask for anymore

I've been working with Tom for just about 3 months. After initially going through a few therapists to find the right match, Tom has proven to be what I needed. Active listener with sound guidance on a wide range of self, family and marital matters. His responsivess between sessions is wonderful and I truly appreciate his breadth and depth of knowledge.

Tom has been a huge help in helping me help myself. I look forward to our sessions and me continuing the journey.

Tom is engaged, an attentive listener and will even add humor to examine your struggles. He is a professional, timely and works well with challenging moments in therapy.

He is very understanding and helpful.

Tom is very easy to talk to, he listens very well and engages the conversation. I was a little nervous at first since this is my first time doing any type of therapy but he’s made it so easy so far!

Working with Tom has been one of my best decisions. He is an attentive listener and responds in a meaningful manner. He has helped me with some core issues of mine by giving me tips on how to handle them. Overall, he is a caring and skilled therapist. I highly recommend him!

Tom is great! He is a good listener, remembers details very well, and offers actionable items for me to try moving forward. He also challenges my way of thinking which is appreciated.

love tom

Tom is easy to talk to and I feel no pressure.

Out of most of the therapist's I've found within Better help, it has been nothing BUT a stressful journey finding a therapist until one that clicks. He is my first ever male therapist and I do not feel uncomfortable. I've so far had only 2 sessions with Tom, but we continuously keep in touch during the week though texts. Tom is respectful, fully responsive, genuine and kind. He is very insightful and he ACTUALLY sends a reaspons not a quick text saying, "How does this make you feel?" Like I've recieved in the past. Most therapist I've came across never utilized the text message help, he does. He takes the time to read it and is open and honest by saying, "If I don't get back to you right away, know that I'm busy and I will." I'm aware our time zones are different but he is punctual with our sessions, he is prompt on responding to my messages when he is able, and it makes me feel heard, respected and understood. I value those things in a therapist. He is great with comforting me in stressful moments and talking me down from the "ledge" of my struggles. I look forward to seeing the improvement on my life/mental health journey and how he assists me to overcome these obstacles. I highly recommend Tom if you're looking for a attentiveness and consistency in a therapist.

Very good. I’d recommend

I’ve had a phenomenal experience with Tom so far. I would highly, highly recommend him to anyone. He’s extremely compassionate, caring, and lets me feel like I’m finally being heard.

Thomas has been helping me for about a month now, and I feel like I have been making so much progress when it comes to my anxiety. Before working with Thomas, I would run away from my problems, but now I feel so comfort using Thomas's tips and advice on how to go about my day when it comes to all areas of life. This is my first time seeing a therapist, and I look forward to making even more progress with Thomas's help.

Very accommodating, listens very well and responds in a beyond satisfactory manner. Helps me prioritize life slowly but surely.
