About Sarita
She uses straightforward conversations to turn problems into achievable goals. Sessions focus on practical steps people can try between meetings. That may include skills for coping with anger, improving sleep and eating patterns, or navigating career and relationship changes.

She has also worked with people facing trauma and abuse, domestic violence, and separation challenges.
Therapy often blends Client-Centered methods with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Solution-Focused techniques. The result is an emphasis on clear goals, skill-building, and regular problem solving. Dr. Schapiro aims for sessions that leave people with concrete strategies to use between appointments.
People who see her can expect a focus on building resilience and practical life skills. She supports clients dealing with self-esteem, ADHD, communication problems, codependency, and forgiveness work. Her style is collaborative and direct, with attention to what will help in everyday life.
How therapy approaches translate to online care
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and understanding a person's perspective, then tailoring support to their goals; it helps when someone needs empathy, clearer direction, or help making decisions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) teaches practical tools to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, which can be useful for anxiety, depression, sleep and eating issues. Solution-Focused Therapy zeroes in on small, doable changes and short-term goals to produce noticeable progress quickly.Finding the right approach is usually a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss your needs, goals, and preferences and help choose methods that fit. That plan can change if something else seems more helpful as therapy continues.
Confirm current session options before booking to know which formats are offered. Online work can make scheduling easier and help sessions fit into a busy life, such as taking a shorter check-in during a work break or avoiding travel time. It also allows following up on skill practice between meetings and keeping momentum on practical tasks introduced in sessions.
