About PJ
PJ Sangalang helps people facing stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression and relationship challenges. He meets people where they are and listens to their story. Sessions are aimed at clear, practical steps as well as understanding deeper feelings.
PJ draws on humanistic ideas to centre the client's experience. He pays attention to how life events and identity shape thoughts and behaviour. That helps people make sense of patterns that feel stuck or painful.
How PJ works
He uses time to explore values, choices and purpose when people are weighing major life decisions or feeling lost. Motivational techniques support movement when someone wants change but feels uncertain where to start. Systemic thinking looks at how relationships and family of origin issues influence current worries and communication problems.
PJ brings three years' experience and is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. He has worked with people from different cultural and socioeconomic backgrounds and speaks English and Tagalog. Sessions are offered online by video call, phone, live chat or text messaging to fit different needs.
International clients can be supported. Practical concerns such as workplace stress, commitment and infidelity are part of his focus alongside feelings of guilt, isolation or midlife questioning. PJ aims to be warm, curious and direct in session.
He creates a steady, boundaried space where people can talk things through, try new perspectives and plan next steps that feel manageable.

Therapeutic approaches for online counselling
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the person's own perspective. The counsellor listens closely, reflects what is said and helps the person find their own answers. This approach suits people who want a supportive space to deepen self-understanding and make choices based on their values.Existential Therapy looks at life meaning, purpose and responsibility. It helps when people feel stuck, questioning their direction or facing major life transitions. Conversations focus on values, freedom and the practical steps someone can take to live more in line with what matters to them.
Finding the best approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss options and adapt methods to the client's goals and preferences. That collaborative process means methods can shift as needs change over time.
Online therapy offers flexibility that fits different routines. Video calls let people use non-verbal clues and feel more like face-to-face meetings. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text messaging are useful for brief check-ins, ongoing reflection and people who find written communication easier.
Registered or accredited professionals provide these online formats so therapy can be continued despite location or busy schedules, and the range of options makes it simple to match sessions to daily life.
