Marisa Logsdon , LPC

Marisa Logsdon is a licensed professional counselor who helps people manage stress, anxiety, grief, parenting strain, depression, addictions, and relationship concerns. She also supports people facing career challenges, compassion fatigue, sleep and eating issues, and coping with major life changes. Marisa’s straightforward approach aims to make therapy feel doable and relevant for daily life.

She keeps sessions focused on the client’s goals and practical steps. She listens for patterns in attachment and communication, and uses that information to suggest useful tools. Sessions often include skill-building for mood regulation, clearer communication, and handling triggers that come from past trauma or loss.

Marisa draws on several therapy styles to match what a person needs. She uses attachment-based ideas to look at relationship patterns, client-centered methods to follow a person’s priorities, and cognitive behavioral techniques to shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. Dialectical behavior skills and existential questions are added when they fit the client’s goals.

Marisa holds a Master of Arts degree in counseling and a Bachelor of Science in psychology from Spring Arbor University. She is a Michigan Licensed Professional Counselor - LPC and a member of the Michigan Counseling Association. Her background includes work with grief, parenting concerns, ADHD-related issues, and crisis response.

Sessions are offered in English and are available by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. Marisa lives in Michigan with her husband, two young children, and two active dogs, and brings a practical, caring style to the work.

Therapeutic approaches and online care

Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships shape current patterns. It helps people notice why certain situations trigger strong reactions and guides changes in how they connect with others.

Client-centered therapy keeps the client’s priorities front and center. The therapist follows what matters most to the person, offering empathy and questions that help clarify goals and next steps.

Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, focuses on the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It teaches practical skills to challenge unhelpful thoughts and to build new behaviors for mood, sleep, and anxiety concerns.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work together with the client to choose methods that match their needs, goals, and preferences, and may combine techniques when that fits the situation.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different schedules and needs. Video is useful for longer sessions and deeper conversation. Phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited or for shorter check-ins. Live chat and text messaging let people send brief updates, ask quick questions, or check in between appointments. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, caregiving, and travel routines.
