About Alexandra

Alexandra Pajak is a licensed clinical social worker with 13 years of experience helping people through hard times. She uses a straightforward, supportive style and focuses on practical steps people can try between sessions. Her work often includes stress, anxiety, depression, grief, addictions, and anger-related concerns.

Alexandra relies heavily on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which looks at how thoughts and actions affect feelings. She also uses Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills for managing strong emotions and improving coping.

Background and approach

Jungian and mindfulness ideas sometimes appear in sessions when exploring deeper meaning or building present-moment awareness. Sessions are goal-oriented and collaborative. Alexandra will listen to what matters most and then help set small, achievable steps.

She tends to offer clear strategies, like breathing and grounding techniques, behavior experiments, and communication practice. People who appreciate direct feedback and simple tools often find this style useful. Alexandra can help with relationship strain, sleep or eating problems, parenting stress, and challenges linked to ADHD or trauma.

She also provides support around identity and intimacy issues. Her training includes graduate degrees from the University of Georgia and Georgia Tech, and she holds an LCSW credential. She practices from Georgia and conducts therapy in English.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging.

Therapeutic approaches for online emotion and behavior work

Alexandra uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice how thoughts, actions, and routines affect moods. CBT sessions focus on testing unhelpful beliefs, building new habits, and trying small behavior changes to reduce anxiety, depression, or anger. Dialectical Behavior Therapy supplies concrete skills for strong emotions - distress tolerance, emotion regulation, and clearer communication are common targets for people who feel overwhelmed or reactive.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Alexandra will talk about what you want to change and then suggest strategies that match those goals. The plan is collaborative: she adjusts techniques based on what helps you make progress and what feels manageable.

Online therapy offers flexibility for people with busy or changing schedules. Video calls allow face-to-face interaction when visual cues matter, while phone sessions can fit a lunch break or use less bandwidth. Live chat and text-based messaging work well for short check-ins, homework support, or when writing out thoughts helps the process. These options make it easier to practice skills consistently and stay connected between sessions.
