About Lois
LCMHC, LMHC with 35 years of clinical experience. Lois Pasapane works with adults on stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, depression, self-esteem, addictions, relationship and intimacy-related concerns, eating issues, career questions, and ADHD. She also focuses on aging and geriatric issues, body image, caregiver stress, and codependency.
Lois uses a person-centered approach. She begins with a detailed intake that includes family and personal history. Together with the client she identifies issues, strengths, and goals. Sessions often include behavioral agreements and homework to practice new skills between meetings.
Her practice also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), hypnotherapy, and Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT). Treatment choices are reviewed with clients and implemented only after explanation and agreement.
Lois describes the counselor role as a resource and support person rather than an answer-holder. She engages clients in role-play, positive reinforcement, and esteem-building exercises when helpful. Clients are expected to participate actively in the work.
She earned a Master of Science in Counseling Psychology from Nova Southeastern University in 1984 and has longstanding licensure history in Florida and North Carolina. Her clinical and teaching background includes group work, classroom instruction, and supervision of prospective counselors.

How her approaches translate to remote work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps clients notice thoughts and choose actions that reflect their values. It is often used when people want practical ways to reduce avoidance and move toward meaningful activity. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on the link between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and uses specific exercises and homework to change unhelpful patterns. CBT can help with anxiety, depression, and stress by teaching measurable skills.Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will discuss options with the client and choose methods based on needs, goals, and preferences. This happens collaboratively during early sessions and can be adjusted over time as goals change.
Confirm the session formats before booking so you know how meetings are held. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a workday, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. They also let people use audio-only options if bandwidth or being on camera is a problem. Ask about the specific formats offered when you complete the matching questionnaire and schedule your first session.
