About Aleksander
Aleksander Casas is a licensed clinical professional counselor with eight years of experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, addiction, and life transitions. He practices from Illinois and offers therapy in English. Aleksander aims to create a steady, focused space where clients can sort through what feels heavy and confusing.
Aleksander believes many struggles come from trying to carry everything alone. In sessions he helps people notice patterns in thoughts, feelings, and relationships.
Background and approach
He uses clear, practical tools alongside deeper exploration to uncover what lies beneath ongoing problems. His work blends Jungian ideas about inner meaning with action-focused approaches like Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. That mix supports both self-understanding and daily changes people can actually use.
Conversations are collaborative and paced to the client’s needs. Aleksander also uses attachment-based and client-centered methods to build trust and focus on what matters most to each person. He addresses a wide range of concerns including grief, trauma, intimacy issues, eating and sleeping problems, ADHD, and caregiver stress.
He pays attention to how past relationships shape present reactions. Sessions are offered remotely through several formats so people can pick what fits their life. Aleksander encourages a step-by-step process where goals are reviewed and adjusted as progress unfolds.

Online support
Approaches for online work and practical change
Aleksander combines Jungian Therapy with Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Attachment-Based Therapy to support online clients. Jungian Therapy focuses on exploring inner themes, symbols, and personal meaning to help people understand deeper patterns. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck and take values-based actions in daily life. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns affect current connections and emotional responses.Finding the right approach is part of the process. Aleksander works collaboratively to match methods to a client's needs, goals, and preferences. He regularly checks in and adjusts the plan so work stays relevant and useful for each person.
Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video lets people use visual cues and do longer sessions, phone can work when bandwidth is limited, live chat can be useful for shorter check-ins, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between meetings. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives and to access support from different locations.
