About Gabriel

Gabriel Kajeckas, MD, LCSW-C, LCSW brings more than three decades of practice to people facing stress, anxiety, grief, and addictive behaviors. He focuses on helping individuals understand how past relationships shape current struggles. Gabriel uses clear, straightforward language so people can act on what they learn in sessions.

He concentrates on patterns that come from family of origin experiences and on how attachment styles affect everyday life. He also helps with relationship strain, codependency, and impulses that feel out of control.

Background and approach

Gabriel works with issues related to substance and process addictions, eating and sleeping problems, and compassion fatigue. His approach blends attachment-based ideas with cognitive behavioral tools and motivational interviewing to support change. Trauma-focused methods are used when past hurt continues to affect daily functioning.

Imago relationship ideas inform how relational patterns are explored when relevant. Gabriel draws on practical steps and honest conversation. He helps people identify strengths, set small goals, and try new ways of responding.

Sessions are aimed at problem-solving as well as understanding the story behind difficult behaviors. He practices in Virginia and offers work in English. International clients can be seen.

Getting started involves a short matching questionnaire and scheduling through the site's Start Therapy flow.

Online support

How attachment work and skill-based methods fit online

Gabriel blends attachment-based ideas with cognitive behavioral techniques to help people spot relationship patterns and change unhelpful habits. Attachment-based therapy looks at how early bonds influence how someone responds to stress and closeness, and it can help when past hurts keep repeating in adult life. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions and offers clear skills to reduce anxiety, manage impulses, and improve sleep.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Gabriel will talk with each person about their goals and preferences, then suggest ways to combine approaches that match those needs. Together they try strategies, review what works, and adjust the plan over time so it fits the person’s life and pace.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to make therapy flexible. Video allows face-to-face conversation for deeper relational work. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth or camera use is an issue. Live chat and text messaging let people check in between sessions or fit brief updates into a busy day. These options help people maintain continuity of care and practice skills where they live.
