Approaches and online support tailored to your needs
Client-Centred Therapy places the client at the heart of the work, emphasising active listening, empathy, and support so people can explore their values and identity - it is especially helpful for self-esteem, stress, and personal growth. Existential Therapy invites exploration of meaning, choice, and responsibility when facing life transitions or questions about purpose; it can help with midlife concerns, feelings of isolation, and confronting uncertainty. Motivational Interviewing focuses on the client’s own motivations for change, using collaborative conversation to resolve ambivalence and support steps toward goals - this approach is practical for commitment issues and behaviour change.Finding the right therapeutic approach is usually a collaborative process. PJ Sangalang works with clients to identify which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting the focus as sessions progress to ensure the work remains relevant and respectful of each person’s pace.
Online therapy offers flexibility and accessibility, allowing people to meet by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit sessions around work, family, and location, and they enable ongoing support even when schedules or circumstances change. Registered professionals can adapt their style to each format so therapy remains effective across different ways of working.
