The following should work, if I’m reading your request correctly:

$sql = "SELECT `categories` FROM `jos_js_res_record` WHERE `categories` LIKE '%Autumn Market Session%' OR `categories` LIKE '%Farmer Market Profiles%' OR `categories` LIKE '%Spring Market Session%' OR `categories` LIKE '%Summer Market Session%' OR `categories` LIKE '%Winter Market Session%' ORDER BY `user_id`"; 

$db->setQuery( $sql ); 

$unserial = $db->loadObjectList(); 

foreach ($unserial as $dataElement) { 
    $categories = unserialize($dataElement->categories); 
    if (is_array($categories)) {
         echo implode('|', $categories);
    } elseif (is_string($categories)) {
         echo $categories;
    }  
    echo '<br />'; 
}
