Aleksander Casas, LCPC

Aleksander Casas is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) based in Illinois with eight years of experience. He frames therapy as a shared process where people slow down and make sense of life stressors. He often points out that feeling overwhelmed does not mean something is wrong with you. It can mean you need time and guidance to sort things out.

He uses straightforward conversation and practical tools to help people manage anxiety, stress, addiction, depression, and relationship concerns. He also supports those dealing with grief, trauma, intimacy issues, parenting strain, and ADHD. He pays attention to how attachment and communication shape everyday reactions and choices.

In sessions he blends approaches to match each person’s needs. That can include cognitive-behavioral work to change unhelpful thoughts, acceptance and commitment ideas to clarify values, and attachment-informed conversation to improve connection. Dialectical skills and client-centered listening are also part of his method when they fit the goals.

Aleksander invites people to explore what’s under their feelings and thinking. He encourages practical steps alongside reflection. The process is aimed at helping people build clearer choices, steadier coping, and better ways to handle life changes.

To begin, clients complete a short match questionnaire and schedule according to the therapist’s availability. Sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time.

How his approaches work in online therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy focuses on helping people notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then choose actions that match their values; it can be useful for anxiety, low mood, and life transitions. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early connection patterns influence current relationships and communication, and it can help people who struggle with closeness, trust, or repeated relationship cycles. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy breaks down thinking and behavior patterns into practical steps to test and change unhelpful habits, which is helpful for anxiety, depression, and everyday coping.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Aleksander treats this as a team effort - he will talk with each person about goals, try things, and adjust methods based on what helps most. The aim is to match tools to the client’s needs and preferences rather than use a single fixed plan.

For practical online arrangements, confirm the therapist's current session options before booking since formats are not specified in the biography. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into busy lives, reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and let people use video or audio according to what feels manageable. Licensed professionals can adapt ACT, attachment-focused work, and CBT to remote sessions so therapy focuses on real-life changes and clearer daily choices.
