Lois Pasapane, LCMHC, LMHC

Lois Pasapane is a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor who helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, and relationship or intimacy concerns. She also works with issues like addictions, eating concerns, career stress, ADHD, self-esteem, and coping with life changes. Lois has practiced for decades and brings a direct, practical approach to sessions.

She holds a Master of Science in Counseling Psychology from Nova Southeastern University and is licensed as an LCMHC in North Carolina and an LMHC in Florida. She also lists national credentialing through the National Board for Certified Counselors as an NCC. Her practice emphasizes collaboration and clear goals.

Lois favors a person-centered style that treats the client as the expert on their life. Early sessions collect family and personal history, identify strengths, and set concrete goals. Treatment plans often include homework and behavior-focused steps to build new skills outside sessions.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is part of the toolkit she uses to address unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and client-centered methods to help people clarify values and take workable actions.

Lois uses additional methods such as hypnotherapy and EMDR when appropriate and after explaining the process. She encourages active participation, role-play, and esteem-building exercises so clients can practice change between meetings.

How therapeutic approaches work online

Lois draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people identify unhelpful thoughts and try small experiments that change behavior. CBT breaks problems into thoughts, actions, and feelings so clients can practice new skills between sessions.

She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people clarify their values and take committed, meaningful action even when uncomfortable feelings arise. Client-Centered Therapy shapes the relationship around the person's goals and strengths, with the therapist offering support and reflection rather than directing every step.

Choosing the best approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss options, listen to your goals, and recommend methods that fit your situation. That decision is made collaboratively and can be adjusted as progress is tracked.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy fit busy lives. Video calls allow face-to-face conversations, phone sessions can be useful when bandwidth is limited, live chat works for quick check-ins, and text sessions make it easier to share thoughts between meetings. These options give flexibility for different schedules and preferences while keeping focus on practical change.
