About Aleksander
Aleksander Casas is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor who focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, addiction, and related life challenges. He draws on eight years of practice to guide clients through difficult moments. Sessions are offered online in ways that fit busy schedules.
He works from Illinois and conducts sessions in English. Aleksander approaches therapy in a straightforward, practical way. He listens first, then helps clients identify patterns that keep problems going.
Background and approach
He uses tools from cognitive behavioral approaches to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. He also draws on acceptance and commitment ideas to help people make choices that match their values. Clients who struggle with grief, relationship concerns, intimacy, or sexual identity often focus on building clearer communication and self-understanding.
He also supports people managing sleep and eating difficulties, bipolar symptoms, ADHD, or chronic pain by breaking concerns into small, manageable steps. Work can include coaching elements when someone wants practical strategies for daily life. Attachment-based methods inform how he looks at relationship patterns and early wounds that affect present behavior.
Dialectical behavior skills are used when emotional regulation and coping skills need strengthening. Sessions aim to be collaborative and paced to the client’s readiness. Therapy sessions use video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging depending on what works best.
The process begins by matching through a short questionnaire and scheduling a session that fits the client’s needs. Aleksander accepts international clients and practices as an IL LCPC.

Online support
Approaches that guide online sessions
Aleksander commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Attachment-Based Therapy in online work. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on accepting difficult feelings and taking actions that match what matters to someone. It can help when worry, avoidance, or uncertainty get in the way of living a meaningful life. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns affect current closeness and communication. It helps people recognize recurring dynamics and try new ways of connecting.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Aleksander treats the choice as a collaborative process. He will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t worked before, then tailor methods to fit those needs.
Online formats - video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging - make it easier to keep therapy consistent. Video is useful when visual cues matter, phone calls can fit short check-ins or low-bandwidth needs, live chat suits quick reflections or notes, and messaging supports ongoing thought processing between sessions. These options let people schedule sessions around work, caregiving, or travel while keeping therapy practical and accessible.
