About PJ
PJ Sangalang is a counsellor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression and low self-esteem. He listens to each person’s story and works with their individual challenges. He aims to offer a calm, respectful space where people can be heard and begin to make sense of difficult feelings.
He draws on humanistic ideas to keep the work focused on the person in front of him. That means conversations centre on how thoughts, feelings and life experiences shape what someone notices and how they respond.
Background and approach
Sessions tend to be practical and grounded, not full of jargon. PJ also uses elements of existential thinking to look at meaning, choice and purpose when people feel stuck or directionless. Motivational interviewing helps when someone is unsure about change and wants practical steps to move forward.
He pays attention to how relationships and family background influence current struggles, including issues like commitment, communication problems and family of origin concerns. He also supports people dealing with guilt, shame, infidelity, loneliness and workplace stress. PJ has three years of experience and is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP.
He has worked with people from varied cultural and socioeconomic backgrounds and draws on those experiences in his practice. Sessions are offered in English and Tagalog. He sees international clients and provides online options such as video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text messaging to suit different needs and schedules.

Approaches PJ lists

Online support
Existential Therapy looks at questions of meaning, choice and responsibility. It can help when someone is re-evaluating life direction, facing a midlife crisis, or wanting clearer purpose in their day-to-day life.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most useful, and will tailor methods accordingly. That means sessions can shift focus as needs change, with the client involved in deciding next steps.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls are good for a face-to-face feel and longer conversations, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or a quieter call is needed, and live chat or text messaging suit short check-ins or people who prefer not to use a camera. These options make it easier to fit counselling into work, study or family routines while keeping a regular rhythm of contact with the therapist.
