Phaciealeethas (PJ) Chandler
I’m not perfect and don’t have all the answers. But I believe most people already hold what they need—we just have to dig a little. As your therapist, think of me as a tour guide. I’ll walk with you, point out what needs attention, and help you build tools to handle what life brings. I’m honest, fair, consistent, and present. I won’t give fluff or false promises, but I will challenge and support you. I’ll offer insight, but the pace and depth of the work will be yours to lead. I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor in Georgia with over 10 years of experience. I earned my Master’s in Counseling with a focus in Clinical Mental Health from Delta State University. I’ve worked with clients ages four through older adulthood, across concerns like anxiety, depression, trauma, ADHD, bipolar disorder, and life transitions. My experience includes outpatient, inpatient, crisis response, community work, and telehealth. My style is person-centered, blending CBT, humanistic, rational choice, psychoeducation, and expressive techniques when helpful. You should also know the first session with me is a space to feel things out. It serves as a consultation—your opportunity to decide if I feel like the right fit. Your comfort on this journey matters most, especially as we dig into insight that can sometimes feel hard to hear.
