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 relationship concerns. She also supports those coping with life changes, parenting strain, sleep trouble, trauma and abuse, ADHD, bipolar mood concerns, and career stress. PJ writes plainly and works in a straightforward way that many people find easy to follow.

She describes the first session as a chance to feel things out and decide if she is the right fit. PJ aims to be honest and consistent, offering both challenge and support. She uses a collaborative style so the client controls the pace and depth of work.

Over 14 years she has worked in outpatient and inpatient settings, crisis response, community programs, and telehealth. Her background includes a Master’s in Counseling with a focus in Clinical Mental Health from Delta State University and practical experience across a wide range of concerns and age groups.

PJ blends several approaches in her sessions. She draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, cognitive behavioral strategies, attachment-based ideas, dialectical behavior approaches, and client-centered principles as useful. She also includes teaching, expressive methods, and practical skill-building when helpful.

Sessions focus on building clear skills, noticing patterns, and making manageable changes. PJ frames herself as a tour guide who walks alongside clients, points out what needs attention, and helps build tools to handle life’s challenges.

How these approaches translate to online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people accept difficult thoughts and feelings while clarifying values and taking committed action. It can be useful for anxiety, stress, and life transitions by making choices that match what matters most. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns and helps people notice and change connection habits that cause pain. It is often helpful for relationship worries and attachment issues. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks down unhelpful thoughts and behaviors into small steps and teaches practical skills to shift them, which can help with anxiety, depression, and sleep problems.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. PJ collaborates with each person to pick which methods fit their goals and comfort level. She adapts techniques over time so sessions match what actually helps the client, and she treats the first meeting as a consultation to set that direction together.

The biography notes experience with telehealth but does not list specific session formats here, so please confirm current options before booking. Many people find online work useful because it can fit around work or family, reduce travel time, and make it easier to keep regular appointments. Therapists can use online sessions to teach skills, practice communication, and offer check-ins that fit into everyday life.
