Marylou Biasotto, LCSW

Marylou Biasotto is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 28 years of experience who helps people facing stress, anxiety, trauma, grief, and relationship or intimacy-related concerns. She works with clients on sleep problems, parenting stress, anger, self-esteem, career questions, bipolar mood concerns, and compassion fatigue. She also supports people navigating LGBT issues and other life changes.

Marylou draws on practical tools from cognitive behavioral approaches and mindfulness to make steady changes. She may incorporate hypnotherapy when it fits a person's needs and uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy ideas to help clarify values and goals. Sessions are shaped around what each person needs and how they prefer to work.

Her background includes independent practice, community mental health, prison work, and international social work. That mix gives her experience with a wide range of life situations, including the stresses of living abroad. She emphasizes sensitivity, respect, and a straightforward conversational style.

Marylou frames therapy as a collaborative process. She and the client set clear goals and measure progress in ways that make sense to daily life. Expect practical skills, short-term strategies, and longer-term work on values and habits.

She is licensed in Delaware as an LCSW and offers services to people located in that state. Messaging is used only as an adjunct between sessions and is not the primary method of providing therapy. To begin, follow the site's process to match and schedule a first appointment.

How therapeutic approaches guide online sessions

Marylou commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in her work. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people clarify their values and commit to small actions that match those values. It can be useful for anxiety, depression, and coping with major life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful patterns, which can help with stress, sleep problems, and mood concerns.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss what feels most useful based on a person's goals, preferences, and daily life. This collaborative process may mix techniques from different approaches as needed.

Confirm current session options before booking, since formats are not specified here. Messaging is described as an adjunct between sessions and not the main way therapy is provided. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when days are tight. It can also let people keep continuity of care if they move within the state. The therapist will help plan sessions that fit routines and practical needs rather than promising a specific delivery method.
