About Lois
Lois Craig is a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) in California with 12 years of experience. She works with adults who are dealing with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, depression, and life changes. Her profile notes a focus on social anxiety and phobia among other concerns.
Lois helps people sort through their experiences to identify what gets in the way of feeling more settled. She uses therapeutic methods that include somatic interventions and EMDR listed in her original biography, and she guides clients through practical steps to make changes. Sessions focus on understanding patterns and building skills to respond differently to stressors.
Her background includes work with panic attacks, post-traumatic stress, mood disorders, and relationship-related struggles such as attachment and communication problems. She also notes attention to caregiver stress, issues around abandonment and feelings of guilt and shame. This gives a broad base for addressing both immediate symptoms and longer-standing patterns.
Lois describes her way of working as collaborative and oriented toward awareness and change. Clients can expect conversations that look at past experiences and current reactions, with attention to physical sensations and how the body holds stress. She aims to help people notice what is keeping problems active and try alternative responses.
People considering therapy with her are asked to use the site process to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session. Sessions use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time, and services are conducted in English in California.
How her approaches fit with online therapy
Lois lists EMDR and somatic interventions among the methods she uses. EMDR is an approach that helps people process distressing memories by guiding attention while recalling them; it is often used for trauma-related concerns. Somatic interventions focus on bodily sensations and patterns of tension or activation, helping people notice and change physical responses linked to stress and anxiety.Finding the right approach is treated as a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to match techniques to their needs, goals, and preferences. That means trying methods, checking how they feel, and adjusting the plan together rather than assuming one approach fits every issue.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm the available options before booking. In general, online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and provide a way to check in during work breaks or between other commitments. Different approaches may also be adapted for remote work - for example, shorter check-ins can help maintain momentum, and somatic exercises can be guided without in-person contact. Ask about which formats are offered when you schedule.
