About Marylou

Marylou Biasotto is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in Delaware with 28 years of experience. She helps people manage stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, depression, relationship and intimacy concerns, sleep problems, parenting strain, career stress, and compassion fatigue.

She takes a practical approach in sessions. Conversations focus on what is happening now and what can be changed. She uses straightforward tools from mindfulness and cognitive behavioral methods and adds hypnotherapy when it seems useful. Sessions aim to improve coping and daily functioning rather than focus only on theory.

Marylou's background includes work in private practice, community mental health, correctional settings, and international social work. That variety gives her a range of techniques for different problems, including chronic illness, aging concerns, and adjustment after major life changes. She is familiar with issues that can arise for people who have lived abroad.

Her work often centers on short-term problem solving alongside longer-term themes like family of origin issues, codependency, and grief. Practical steps such as behavioral experiments, mindfulness exercises, and structured goal-setting are commonly used. Hypnotherapy may be offered when it complements those steps.

People who choose her can expect concise, goal-focused sessions that address everyday burdens like work, relationships, sleep, and health. Marylou explains methods plainly and helps clients try specific strategies between sessions. She uses messaging only as an adjunct between appointments rather than as the main way to provide therapy.

BHow sessions work

How therapeutic approaches translate to online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing thoughts and values-driven action. It helps people who feel stuck by clarifying what matters and taking small steps toward those goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, behaviors, and feelings and uses practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns. It is useful for anxiety, depression, sleep issues, and anger. Hypnotherapy uses guided relaxation and focused attention to support behavior change and reduce distress when appropriate.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and daily demands and recommend methods that fit. That collaboration can include trying a short CBT plan, practicing mindfulness exercises between sessions, or adding a hypnotherapy intervention if it seems helpful.

Confirm current session options before booking, as specific formats are not specified here. Online sessions can make scheduling easier and help fit therapy into a workday or caregiving routine. They also allow shorter check-ins and reduce travel time, making consistent follow-up more practical while keeping the focus on real-life changes and skills practice.
