Integrating therapeutic approaches with online care

Client-Centered Therapy centers on the client as the expert on their own life. The therapist offers empathy, active listening, and support so clients can explore values, clarify goals, and build self-directed solutions - an approach especially helpful for relationship, self-esteem, and life transition concerns.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a practical, skill-focused method that examines connections between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. CBT helps clients identify unhelpful thinking patterns and practice alternative coping strategies, which can be effective for anxiety, depression, stress, and sleep or eating issues.

Solution-Focused Therapy emphasizes small, achievable changes and forward-looking goals. It concentrates on strengths and what is already working, making it useful for clients seeking concrete steps to address parenting challenges, communication problems, or everyday stressors.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Dr. Sarita Schapiro works with each person to determine which combination of methods fits their needs, preferences, and goals, adapting techniques as therapy progresses.

Online formats - including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging - offer flexible ways to engage in therapy without travel. These options make it easier to schedule appointments around work, family, or other commitments and to maintain continuity of care during life changes.
