Phaciealeethas (PJ) Chandler , LPC

Phaciealeethas (PJ) Chandler is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who helps people manage stress, anxiety, anger, low self-esteem, depression, and life changes. She also supports concerns related to relationships, family tension, trauma and abuse, sleep troubles, parenting, career challenges, mood disorders, ADHD, and women's issues.

PJ uses a straightforward, honest approach in sessions. She listens first and helps clients notice what already works for them. Then she offers tools and practices to try between meetings. PJ aims to match pace to each person's readiness and comfort.

Her practice draws on client-centered methods alongside cognitive behavioral ideas and acceptance strategies. She also blends attachment-focused perspectives and dialectical behavior techniques when they fit the client's needs. Sessions often include clear skills practice and real-life problem solving rather than only talking about feelings.

PJ trained in counseling at the master’s level and holds a Georgia LPC credential. Over 14 years she has worked in outpatient and inpatient settings, crisis response, community programs, and telehealth. That background informs her work with people facing complex mood and trauma histories.

New clients typically use the first session as a consultation to see if the fit feels right. PJ describes her role as a steady guide who will point out issues, challenge when needed, and support clients as they build practical tools for daily life.

Approaches that translate to online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then commit to actions that reflect their values; it can help with anxiety, depression, and life changes. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on relational patterns and how early bonds affect current relationships and communication, which can be useful for family, codependency, and relationship challenges. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches concrete exercises to change unhelpful patterns, often helping with anxiety, mood disorders, and sleep issues.

PJ helps clients find the right mix of approaches through conversation and collaboration. She listens to goals and preferences, then suggests methods to try together. The fit is checked regularly so techniques can be adjusted based on what helps most.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face work and skill demonstrations. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a client prefers audio only. Live chat or text-based messaging supports quick check-ins, coaching-style support, and short reflections between longer sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, parenting, or busy schedules while working with licensed professionals and therapists focused on real-life tools and progress.
