About Marylou
Marylou Biasotto is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Delaware with 28 years of experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, depression, relationship and intimacy issues, sleep problems, parenting strains, and codependency concerns. She also supports people managing chronic illness, cancer, aging issues, and career pressures.
Marylou describes a practical, straightforward approach in sessions. She uses mindfulness, cognitive behavioral techniques, and hypnotherapy when appropriate. Conversations focus on clear steps a person can use between sessions. She also draws on solution-focused techniques to help people identify immediate, usable changes.
Her background includes community mental health, private practice, prison settings, and international social work. That range informs how she frames goals and plans for clients in different life situations. She has experience helping people adjust to living abroad and to major life transitions.
Sessions typically center on learning tools to manage symptoms and on practicing new responses to recurring patterns such as people-pleasing or difficulty saying no. Marylou uses short exercises, skill-building, and reflective discussion during appointments. She also makes limited use of messaging to support work between sessions, not as a primary therapy method.
People can expect a clear focus on practical strategies, step-by-step planning, and techniques drawn from ACT, CBT, mindfulness, and hypnotherapy. Before booking, confirm current session options and formats to match scheduling needs.
How sessions work
How therapeutic approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on helping people notice what matters to them and take small actions toward those values. It can help when someone feels stuck, overwhelmed by emotions, or unsure how to set boundaries. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, CBT, looks at how thoughts and behaviors keep problems going and teaches concrete skills to change those patterns. It is often used for anxiety, depression, sleep issues, and problem-focused challenges.Marylou treats choosing an approach as a collaborative process. She will work with a client to try techniques and see what fits their needs and preferences. That means sessions can shift from skill practice to reflective work, or include brief hypnotherapy exercises when they seem useful to the person's goals.
Confirm current session formats before booking because they are not listed here. Messaging is used only to support work between sessions, not as the main form of therapy. Online work can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, allow for shorter check-ins when time is tight, and reduce travel time. It also lets people practice skills in real-life contexts and bring questions from daily life into the next session. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises such as mindfulness practices, CBT worksheets, and brief hypnotherapy steps to the online setting so the work stays practical and focused.
