Her office is located at 13983 Mango Dr #104, Del Mar, CA 92014, near the intersection of Mango Drive and Lozana Road. Sarita completed both her undergraduate and graduate studies at Chapman University, earning a master's degree in marriage and family therapy in 1981.

Clients who are also navigating physical health concerns may find it helpful that Team Chiropractic operates nearby in Del Mar, offering complementary body-focused care alongside Sarita's therapeutic approach. She accumulated her early clinical hours across a drug and alcohol rehabilitation facility, a community counseling center, and hospice care, giving her direct experience with clients across every age group and a wide range of cultural and religious backgrounds. Her practice addresses a broad spectrum of concerns including anger and impulse control, relationship conflict, family dynamics, parenting challenges, anxiety, depression, grief, and self-esteem. Sarita views the family unit as the foundational structure of support and works to improve communication patterns, establish routines that reduce household conflict, and strengthen bonds between partners and between parents and children. Office hours run Monday through Friday from 8:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m., giving working professionals and families evening availability that many therapists in the area do not offer. The Mango Drive location is wheelchair accessible and provides a quieter, residential-area setting away from the busier village streets where practitioners like Dana Fillmore, PsyD also serve the Del Mar therapy community. Prospective clients can reach the office at (858) 481-8847 to schedule an initial session.
