SL Portrait of Sarita Ledet

Sarita Ledet, LMFT

Practical, meaning-focused therapy for stress and trauma

About Sarita

Sarita Ledet is a licensed marriage and family therapist practicing in California. She draws on a long career to help people who feel stuck by anxiety, stress, trauma, or career challenges.

Background and approach

She speaks plainly and focuses on practical next steps that fit each person's life. With 37 years of professional experience, she supports people working through low self-esteem, compassion fatigue, guilt, or questions about life purpose.

Her work is grounded in listening first, and then helping clients notice strengths they already have. Sessions aim to build confidence and clearer direction rather than rely on jargon or long lectures.

Sarita uses Existential Therapy to look at meaning, choices, and the pressures that make day-to-day life hard. That approach helps people who struggle with shame, post-traumatic stress, workplace burnout, or doubts about what comes next.

Conversations examine values, personal responsibility, and how small choices add up over time. She encourages practical steps between sessions so momentum grows outside the appointment.

That could be short exercises, clearer boundaries at work, or simple plans to reduce overwhelm. The focus is on usable tools that match each person's goals.

People who reach out will find a collaborative, steady presence that emphasizes empowerment. The therapist invites clients to name priorities and try out changes at a manageable pace.

If someone is ready to take the first step, Sarita offers a steady guide through the process.

Existential therapy and online sessions that fit your life

Existential Therapy helps people look at meaning, choices, and what matters most. It invites questions about values, purpose, and how day-to-day choices shape a life. This approach can be useful for people coping with trauma, shame, career doubts, or a loss of direction.

The therapist takes a collaborative approach to finding the right method. Together they will consider your goals, preferences, and what feels most useful. That way the approach is adapted to your needs rather than following a fixed script.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video calls work well for in-depth conversation and visual connection. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when you need a shorter check-in. Live chat and text messaging suit people who prefer written reflection or want quick, ongoing contact between appointments. These options make it simpler to fit therapy around work, caregiving, or a busy schedule.
