About Sarita
Dr. Sarita Schapiro is a Florida Psychologist (FL Psychologist PY4914) with three years of experience. She works with stress, anxiety, relationship and family concerns, grief, depression, addictions, trauma and abuse, intimacy-related issues, eating and sleeping problems, parenting, anger, self-esteem, career questions, coping with life changes, coaching, and ADHD. She offers services in English and Spanish and is based in Florida.
Dr. Schapiro structures sessions around clear, practical goals. She uses Client-Centered Therapy to keep the focus on the person's experience and what matters most to them. She also draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thinking patterns, and on Solution-Focused Therapy to build short-term strategies that can be tried between sessions.
In sessions she works toward small, concrete changes rather than abstract theories. Conversations aim to reframe problems into realistic steps. People leave with specific techniques to test in daily life and a plan for the next meeting.
She has experience addressing family of origin issues, blended family concerns, caregiver stress, codependency, commitment and communication problems, divorce and separation, and domestic violence among other focused areas. She also helps with feelings of emptiness, guilt, shame, forgiveness, and abandonment.
Her approach is practical and collaborative. She offers parent guidance and life-skills coaching alongside therapeutic work. Prospective clients should confirm current session formats before booking and follow the site's matching process to schedule an initial meeting.
How her approaches are used in online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the person's perspective and the concerns they bring. It helps people feel heard and shapes the work around their priorities. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy breaks down thoughts, feelings, and behaviors to find practical ways to change patterns that cause distress. Solution-Focused Therapy looks for strengths and quick steps that produce measurable change in a short time.Figuring out which approach fits best is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what has or hasn't helped before deciding on a direction. That decision is collaborative and can be adjusted as sessions progress so that methods match the client's needs and pace.
Confirm which session formats the therapist currently offers before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules demand them. They can also allow for video or audio-only conversations depending on what the therapist supports. These practical benefits help integrate therapy into everyday life without promising a specific outcome.
