About Lois
Lois Pasapane is a licensed mental health counselor who helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, addiction, relationship and intimacy concerns, and issues like body image or ADHD. She draws on many approaches to meet practical needs and helps clients set clear goals and steps.
Lois works with adults seeking help with life changes, career challenges, eating concerns, caregiver strain, or aging-related stress in North Carolina. Lois trained in counseling psychology and has practiced for decades.
Background and approach
She begins with a focused intake to understand personal and family history, current concerns, and strengths. From that starting point she and the client build a straightforward plan with short-term goals and homework to practice between sessions. Her style is person-centered - the client’s goals guide the work.
Lois uses behavioral exercises, role-play, and esteem-building activities to increase skills. She also uses cognitive techniques to shift unhelpful thinking and acceptance-based strategies to help people live by their values. When trauma is present, Lois may include EMDR and hypnotherapy as part of a careful, explained plan.
These methods are introduced only after discussing how they work and getting explicit agreement from the client. Lois expects active participation. She offers practical tools for coping and follows up with concrete assignments to build new habits.
Her long experience includes teaching and supervising future counselors, which informs a calm, organized approach to therapy.

Online support
How therapeutic approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and commit to actions that match their values. It’s useful for anxiety, stress, and life transitions because it focuses on small behavior changes that add up. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the connection between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches practical skills to reframe thinking and change behavior. It is helpful for depression, anxiety, and coping with everyday problems. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a trauma-focused method that can reduce the intensity of distressing memories through guided processes conducted by a trained clinician.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals, preferences, and needs, and then recommend one or a blend of methods. That collaboration lets the client try methods like ACT or CBT first, and consider EMDR or hypnotherapy later if appropriate.
Online therapy offers flexibility to fit sessions into busy lives. Video calls approximate an in-person session when face-to-face conversation helps. Phone sessions can be easier when video is not possible or bandwidth is limited. Live chat or text-based messaging work well for brief check-ins, ongoing support, or shorter progress notes between longer sessions. These options make it easier to keep regular appointments and practice skills in real time.
