About Sarai

Sarai Escarment is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in Florida with 15 years of experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, addiction, relationship and family concerns, depression, trauma and grief, and related areas such as sleep, eating, parenting strain, anger, self-esteem, career questions, bipolar mood concerns, and ADHD. She offers practical help for people motivated to learn new skills and cope with life changes.

Sarai uses methods drawn from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) along with Dialectical Behavior Therapy, mindfulness, motivational interviewing, and solution-focused ideas. In sessions she looks for patterns of thinking and behavior that get in the way and tries small, testable changes. Work is concrete and skill-based rather than abstract discussion alone.

She has a long history supporting a wide range of people, including experience with children and adolescents who have behavioral challenges and learning differences. That background informs how she explains strategies and structures practice tasks between sessions. Clients can expect clear homework and simple techniques to practice day to day.

Sarai aims to help people build practical coping tools for stress, relapse prevention for addictions, emotion regulation, and improving communication around relationships. She also addresses parenting strain by helping parents develop consistent routines and strategies they can use at home.

Her approach is collaborative: she reviews goals, teaches skills, and adjusts methods based on what works. To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session to set goals and the pace of work.

How CBT, DBT and Mindfulness are used in online sessions

CBT focuses on spotting patterns of thought and behavior that keep problems going. In practice this looks like identifying a few common thoughts, testing them with simple experiments, and building new routines to change outcomes. It works well for anxiety, low mood, sleep and behavior changes.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) brings practical skills for handling strong emotions and improving relationships. Sessions teach emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and clearer communication techniques that can be practiced between meetings. Mindfulness Therapy trains attention to present moment experience and helps reduce reactivity through short breathing and awareness exercises.

Finding the best approach is collaborative. Sarai reviews a person’s goals and preferences, then suggests one or a mix of these approaches. She adjusts tools and homework based on what helps the client make small, measurable changes.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life - for example shorter check-ins during a lunch break, avoiding travel time, or choosing audio-only when bandwidth is limited. Licensed professionals can use structured worksheets, brief behavioral experiments, and step-by-step practice in remote sessions to keep work concrete and goal-focused.
