Therapeutic approaches and online care

Dr. Sarita Schapiro draws from client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, and solution-focused therapy to guide her online work. Client-centered therapy emphasizes understanding each person's perspective and building a supportive, respectful relationship that helps people explore their feelings and values. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and replacing them with more constructive patterns to reduce symptoms like anxiety and low mood. Solution-focused therapy concentrates on setting clear, short-term goals and identifying practical steps and strengths that move a person toward those goals.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process and is decided collaboratively. Dr. Schapiro will work with clients to assess needs, preferences, and goals, then adapt techniques from these approaches to create a personalized plan that feels manageable and relevant.

Online sessions are available by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging, offering flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives, maintain continuity during transitions, and access licensed professionals from where clients live in Florida.
