About Aleksander
Aleksander Casas is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) based in Illinois with eight years of experience. He frames therapy as a shared process and offers a steady, listening presence for people feeling overwhelmed by life stress and change. Aleksander uses clear, calm language so clients can focus on what matters most to them.
He believes many struggles come from navigating relationships and life transitions. Aleksander helps people identify patterns that keep them stuck, then practices small, manageable shifts.
Background and approach
Sessions tend to be practical and goal-focused while still making room for emotion. Attachment-based ideas guide how he looks at relationship patterns and how early bonds can shape current behavior. He pairs that understanding with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to challenge unhelpful thoughts and with Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to clarify values and take meaningful action.
Aleksander works with a wide range of concerns including anxiety, depression, trauma, addictions, grief, intimacy-related issues, attention differences, caregiver stress, and career worries. He also addresses topics like body image, communication problems, and blended family challenges. Therapy is offered through telehealth formats so people can fit sessions into busy lives.
Aleksander encourages questions and checks in about what feels useful, adjusting pace and focus as needed. He aims to make therapy feel like a practical space to notice, try, and change.

Online support
How these approaches translate to online care
Aleksander uses Attachment-Based Therapy to look at how early relationship patterns influence current behavior and connection. This approach helps people notice how they relate to others and make different choices when relationships cause stress.He also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which helps people clarify what matters to them and take intentional steps toward those values even when emotions are hard. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is used to spot and rework thoughts that fuel anxiety or low mood, making everyday routines feel more manageable.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Aleksander treats therapy as a collaboration and will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels most useful. Together they adjust methods and pace so sessions match the person's needs.
Online therapy offers flexibility that fits many lifestyles. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions can work when bandwidth is limited, live chat is useful for shorter check-ins, and text messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options make it easier to schedule care around work, caregiving, or travel while keeping therapy consistent.
