About Lois
Lois Plock is an LCSW (Licensed Clinical Social Worker) licensed in North Carolina and Florida with 11 years of experience. She focuses on addictions, relationship strain, grief, self‑esteem, stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, intimacy issues, depression, and ADHD. Lois uses several practical therapy methods including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Client‑Centered work, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and Emotionally‑Focused Therapy.
She began her clinical career after completing education later in adulthood and describes life experience as a useful lens for clinical work. Early roles included residential addiction treatment and intensive outpatient programs. That background includes running support groups, teaching life skills, and giving talks about recovery and coping.
Her practice includes work with people facing substance use and codependency, as well as those dealing with separation, family‑of‑origin problems, guilt, shame, and purposelessness. She has also supported people affected by disaster, aging concerns, first responder stress, and co‑occurring conditions. Spiritual concerns have been part of her work at times.
Lois favors a collaborative, direct style. Sessions tend to mix problem‑focused tools from CBT and DBT with acceptance and mindfulness techniques and relational work from emotionally‑focused approaches. The result is a practical blend of skills training, values clarification, and talk‑based processing.
Her background in multiple levels of care informs how she structures sessions and sets goals. Readers should confirm current session formats and scheduling options before booking.

How her approaches work in remote sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify personal values and take small actions toward them. In remote work this looks like short exercises and value‑based homework between meetings. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying thought patterns and testing them with behavioral experiments, which can be assigned as practical tasks to try between sessions. Emotionally‑Focused Therapy (EFT) centers on understanding emotional responses in relationships and practicing new ways of connecting and communicating. Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and the presenting problem, then suggest one or more approaches to try. This is a collaborative process and methods can be adjusted based on what helps most. Confirm the current session options before booking because formats are not listed here. Online work can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, allow shorter check‑in meetings when schedules are tight, and support homework and skills practice between sessions. It also lets people join from different locations without needing travel time. Ask about the specific formats offered when you schedule so you know what to expect.Sheet 3
