About Lois
Lois Pasapane is a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor, LCMHC, and holds an LMHC credential with 35 years of experience. She works with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, self-esteem, depression, addictions, relationship and intimacy concerns, eating issues, career questions, and ADHD. Lois practices in North Carolina and conducts sessions in English.
She begins with a detailed intake to map personal and family history, current issues, and strengths. From that assessment she and the client build a practical plan with specific goals. Plans often include behavioral agreements and short homework tasks to try between sessions. Clients are expected to take an active role in the work.
Her approach is person-centered with added structured methods when useful. Techniques include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to track thoughts and behaviors, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to clarify values and action, and EMDR where trauma processing is needed. Hypnotherapy and Emotional Freedom Technique are offered selectively after a full discussion and client agreement.
Lois uses role-play, positive reinforcement, and esteem-building exercises to practice new responses. She frames herself as a resource and guide rather than someone who holds all the answers. Progress is measured in concrete steps and changes people can notice in daily life.
Before a first session clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule an initial appointment. Cost varies by location and sessions use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time. International clients are not accepted.
Using CBT, ACT and client-centered work in online sessions
Lois uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and try small experiments to change them. CBT focuses on concrete skills - tracking patterns, testing beliefs, and practicing different responses - which can be useful for anxiety, depression, and stress.She also employs Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to clarify what matters to a person and to build committed actions that align with those values. Client-centered methods provide a steady, respectful base so clients can set goals and direct the pace of work.
Finding the best approach is a collaborative process. Lois will review your history and current concerns and discuss which methods fit your goals and preferences. She explains options, answers questions, and agrees on a plan before starting techniques such as EMDR, hypnotherapy, or tapping when those are appropriate.
