“The curious paradox is that when I accept myself just as I am, then I can change”
The Heart of Peace by Piece
The Approach
Therapy at Peace by Piece is grounded in curiosity, compassion, and honesty.
There is a strong focus on acceptance as a starting point: accepting who you are, where you are, and what you are carrying right now.
From there, the work can include:
Understanding patterns
Building coping skills
Processing difficult experiences
Creating more stability in daily life
“Peace by Piece was built on the belief that healing does not happen all at once.
It happens gradually; it happens through insight, reflection, and steady support.”
What Makes This Practice Different
Fully individualized care

Therapy is not a quick fix. It is a process we work through together, with practical tools and meaningful insight.No long-term commitment required
You are welcome to come for one session or stay longer. Therapy is here to support you in the way that feels right.
Dr. Alexandria Hudeck
Hi! My name is Dr. Alexandria Hudeck, but I prefer to just go by Dr. Alex. I am a Licensed Clinical Psychologist in Ohio who works with individuals and families, with a particular focus on children, adolescents, and young adults. I have specialized training in interpersonal trauma, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), emotional dysregulation, mood disorders, anxiety, eating disorders, ADHD, and behavioral challenges. As a clinician, I value being genuine, thoughtful, and nonjudgmental, and I strive to create a space where clients feel supported, understood, and encouraged toward meaningful growth.
I earned my undergraduate degree with university honors from Bowling Green State University, followed by my master’s degree from Capella University, and later completed my doctoral training at California Southern University. I became licensed in Ohio in 2024 and completed ADOS training in 2025, which further strengthened my work in assessment and diagnostic clarification.
My clinical work is informed primarily by Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT). I also integrate other evidence-based approaches as appropriate, tailoring treatment to each client’s unique needs, goals, and lived experiences.
My path into psychology began in high school, when I took my first psychology class and, for the first time, felt like I truly understood everything that was being taught to me. That experience sparked a deep sense of clarity and calling. I had always known that I wanted to help people, and the study of human behavior and emotion resonated with me in a way that made it difficult to imagine pursuing any other career. That early connection to the field continues to shape the way I approach my work - with curiosity, respect, and a genuine interest in understanding each person’s story.
Outside of my clinical work, I love art and spending time outdoors. Hiking, kayaking, and reading are some of the ways I recharge, reflect, and stay grounded, and I value the balance that creativity, nature, and quiet moments bring to my life.
It is a privilege to do this work, and I welcome the opportunity to walk alongside you as you move toward greater understanding, healing, and peace.
