About Marisa

Marisa Logsdon, LPC, supports people facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain, grief, parenting pressure, depression, and addictions. She also helps with trauma and abuse, sleep and eating concerns, anger, low self-esteem, career questions, and coping with life changes. Marisa emphasizes straightforward support and practical steps to help people move forward.

Marisa earned a Master of Arts degree in counseling and a Bachelor’s degree in psychology from Spring Arbor University. She holds a Michigan Licensed Professional Counselor credential and is a member of the Michigan Counseling Association. Her background includes work with grief, suicide prevention, parenting issues, and school-related concerns.

Her approach centers on helping clients answer their own questions. Sessions focus on listening, identifying goals, and practicing small changes that make daily life easier. Marisa uses methods from attachment-based and client-centered therapy to deepen understanding of relationships and patterns.

She also draws on cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) tools to teach coping skills and manage strong emotions. Existential ideas are used when clients want to examine meaning, values, and life direction. Marisa aims to match techniques to each person’s needs rather than following a single method.

Clients can expect a supportive tone and clear, practical suggestions. Marisa lives in Michigan with her husband, two young children, and two active dogs, and brings a calm, down-to-earth presence to her work.

How approach and online therapy connect

Attachment-based work focuses on how early and current relationships shape feeling safe and connected. It helps when relationship patterns, abandonment worries, or attachment issues affect daily life. Client-centered therapy centers on listening and reflecting what matters to the person; it helps people clarify goals and feel understood. Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, looks at thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and teaches practical strategies to change them.

Finding the right approach is part of therapy. The therapist will work together with each person to choose methods that fit their goals and comfort level. That means trying techniques, checking what helps, and adjusting the plan as needed.

The therapist’s biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. It also supports using worksheets, skill practices, and in-the-moment coaching about feelings and reactions without needing to rearrange a whole day. Licensed professionals often combine listening with concrete skills work so sessions lead to usable changes.
