About Sarita

Background and approach

Dr. Schapiro aims to help people reframe challenges into achievable goals and to leave sessions with concrete strategies to try between appointments.

She integrates structured problem solving and cognitive restructuring to address symptoms like anxiety, depression, stress, and difficulties with relationships, intimacy, or family dynamics. Her work also addresses a wide range of life challenges including grief, addictions, trauma and abuse, sleep and eating concerns, anger and self-esteem struggles, career and coping with life changes, and ADHD.

Dr. Schapiro provides guidance on parenting, blended family issues, communication and control struggles, codependency, and forgiveness, tailoring interventions to each person’s situation.

She speaks English and Spanish and is licensed as a Florida psychologist (FL Psychologist PY4914).

Therapeutic approaches and online access

Dr. Schapiro uses Client-Centered Therapy to create a collaborative environment where the client’s perspectives and goals guide the work; this approach helps people feel heard and shapes therapy around their priorities. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is employed to identify and modify unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, often used for anxiety, depression, and stress-related problems. Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on setting concrete, short-term goals and building practical steps toward change, which can be useful for relationship issues, parenting challenges, and coping with life transitions.

Finding the right combination of approaches is part of the therapeutic process, and the therapist works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. Together they assess progress and adjust strategies so sessions remain focused and relevant to the individual’s situation.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, offering flexibility for people with varying schedules or mobility needs. These formats allow for continuity of care and make it easier to incorporate regular sessions and between-session support into a busy life, while enabling licensed professionals to use CBT and solution-focused techniques effectively across different communication modes.
