About Phaciealeethas

Phaciealeethas (PJ) Chandler supports people dealing with stress, anxiety, anger, low self-esteem, depression, parenting concerns, relationship and family issues, trauma, sleep troubles, attention differences, and career or life transitions. She speaks plainly and helps clients build practical skills to cope. PJ is a Licensed Professional Counselor - LPC and brings direct, steady presence to sessions.

She describes her role as a guide who walks alongside clients and helps point out what needs attention.

Background and approach

Her approach is straightforward and honest. She offers challenge and support without empty promises. PJ emphasizes that pace and depth are set by the client, and that the first meeting is a chance to see if the fit feels right.

She combines insight with hands-on tools so people can manage day-to-day struggles. PJ has 14 years of clinical experience and practices in Georgia. Her background includes work in outpatient and inpatient settings, crisis response, community programs, and telehealth.

That variety informs how she adapts strategies to different situations. In sessions she uses multiple methods tailored to each person’s needs. These include Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Attachment-Based work, and client-centered techniques.

She also incorporates psychoeducation and expressive approaches when they help the process. PJ aims to create a clear space for honest conversation. She neither promises instant answers nor assumes she knows everything.

Instead she helps clients notice patterns, practice new ways of coping, and develop tools to handle life’s challenges.

Therapeutic options and how online work fits together

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then commit to actions that matter. It is useful for anxiety, depression, and when life changes make goals feel unclear. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and changing behaviors that keep problems going; it often helps with anxiety, low mood, sleep troubles, and stress. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns and can help with codependency, communication problems, and family concerns by strengthening understanding of relational needs.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. PJ collaborates with each person to pick methods that match their needs, goals, and preferences. She may mix techniques and revisit the plan as progress and priorities change, keeping the client in charge of pace and depth.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls let people have a face-to-face conversation from home, while phone sessions work when video is not possible. Live chat and text-based messaging allow shorter or more frequent check-ins and can make it easier to use skills between sessions. These options can help people fit therapy into busy lives and access consistent support even when schedules or locations change.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)

Less about arguing with difficult thoughts, more about loosening their grip and acting on what matters to you anyway. Values and committed action carry the work, which suits conversation at a distance.

Attachment-Based Therapy

Looks at how early bonds shaped what you expect from closeness, and how that plays out now with a partner, a parent, or your own children.

Client-Centered Therapy

The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.
