About Sarita

Dr. Sarita Schapiro is a Florida Psychologist (FL Psychologist PY4914) with three years of practice listed. She works with stress, anxiety, relationships, family concerns, grief, depression, addictions, trauma and abuse, intimacy issues, eating and sleeping problems, parenting challenges, anger, self-esteem, career setbacks, life changes, coaching and ADHD. Sessions are offered in English and Spanish.

Dr. Schapiro uses clear, goal-oriented work to break problems into manageable steps. She draws on Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Solution-Focused Therapy to help people try new ways of responding. Conversations in sessions focus on practical strategies to test between appointments and small behavior changes that reduce daily strain.

Her approach emphasizes short-term skill building and problem solving. She helps people set realistic goals and practices techniques for coping with frustration, resentment, or losing control in close relationships. She also offers guidance around parenting, communication, and rebuilding trust after conflict.

Dr. Schapiro notes experience with additional issues such as abandonment, autism and Asperger syndrome, blended family issues, caregiver stress, codependency, commitment and control issues, divorce and separation, domestic violence, family of origin problems, forgiveness, and guilt and shame. That array means sessions can address both immediate symptoms and the background that fuels recurring anger.

Background includes work in clinical and public settings. The biography lists practice in Florida and bilingual work in English and Spanish. To start, prospective clients follow the site process to match and schedule a first session.

How her approaches translate to online work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting so people can describe what angers them and what they want to change. That approach helps when the main need is clearer self-understanding and emotional support.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks down patterns of thought and behavior that feed anger. It gives concrete exercises and experiments to try between sessions to reduce reactivity and change habits.

Solution-Focused Therapy narrows attention to immediate, practical goals and small steps that make life easier. It is useful for people who want quick, doable changes in how they respond to frustrating situations.

Working together, the therapist and the client decide which approach or combination to use based on the client's goals, needs, and preferences. This is a collaborative process where the plan can change as progress is made.

Session logistics should be confirmed before booking since the biography does not list specific online formats. Ask about the available session formats during the matching step. Online work can make it easier to fit check-ins into a busy day, allow shorter focused sessions when needed, and remove travel time so skills can be practiced more immediately between meetings.
