Getting to know Marylou Escoto

Hi there, I'm Marylou! My name is Marylou Escoto. I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) based in Fresno, California. I work with clients state-wide via telehealth and/or in-person sessions. I work with pre-teens, adolescents, young adults, adults, and couples. I specialize in anxiety, depression, life adjustment struggles, stress, pre-postpartum mood, and trauma disorders. I earned my Bachelor's degree from California State University, Fresno, which laid the foundation for my passion in mental health and helping others. My approach My therapeutic approach varies based on each client's needs. I commonly use Client-Centered, Rogerian, Cognitive Behavioral, and Dialectic Behavioral Therapy. These modalities allow me to understand individualized needs and struggles and to support clients in building wellness, confidence, and life satisfaction, together. My focus I have noticed that my style and approach are a good fit with pre-teens, adolescents, young adults, adults, and couples dealing with life stressors, life transitions, and social pressures. I work to help clients understand patterns, learn about emotions informing behaviors, and build helpful skills to create changes aligned with life goals for overall wellness. My communication style My communication style is calm, friendly, and respectful. I want my clients to feel comfortable, heard, and supported when talking about anything. I take pride in my ability to balance humility and professionalism when listening and helping clients. I offer my full attention to you through active listening and skills-building dialogue in a safe space that is judgment-free. My journey to mental healthcare I decided to become a therapist after I acknowledged my natural pattern of helping others feel better about themselves. This developed into a passion over the years in personal life, while in school, and through job experiences.
