Her clinical focus includes grief counseling, anxiety, depression, personality disorders, eating disorders, and substance use disorders.

Approaches and Access - Online Therapeutic Support

Alexandra Pajak uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) alongside mindfulness-based ideas to guide online work. CBT helps identify unhelpful thought patterns and build practical strategies for managing symptoms such as anxiety or depression. DBT emphasizes emotional regulation and interpersonal skills, and is useful for clients dealing with intense emotions or relationship challenges. Mindfulness therapy teaches simple attention and awareness practices that can reduce reactivity and support stress management.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process and Alexandra works collaboratively to determine what fits a client's needs, goals, and preferences. She combines elements from different approaches as appropriate and adjusts the plan over time so therapy remains relevant and effective for each person.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules, maintain continuity of care during life transitions, and access licensed professionals from different locations. Alexandra aims to use these formats to make therapy accessible and responsive to each client’s practical needs.
