About Marisa

Marisa Logsdon is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Michigan who helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship concerns, and parenting challenges. She also supports those dealing with addictions, trauma and abuse, sleep and eating difficulties, anger, low self-esteem, career shifts, bipolar mood concerns, and compassion fatigue. Marisa writes plainly: life is hard - counseling can help.

She keeps sessions focused on practical steps and personal insight. She listens first, then helps clients name their priorities. Marisa encourages people to set goals they find meaningful and to try small changes between meetings. Her style centers on collaboration rather than one-size-fits-all answers.

Marisa combines several approaches to match each person's needs. She uses attachment-based ideas to look at relationships and how early bonds affect current choices. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps people identify unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors. She also draws on client-centered work to keep the conversation rooted in what matters to the client.

Her background includes a Master of Arts degree in counseling and a bachelor’s degree in psychology from Spring Arbor University. She holds a counseling license from the state of Michigan and is a member of the Michigan Counseling Association. Marisa has training across many common concerns like anxiety, ADHD, grief, parenting, and stress management.

Outside of work she lives in Michigan with her husband, two young children, and two active dogs. She aims to create a supportive space where people can talk through current problems and work toward their goals.

How her approaches translate to online work

Marisa uses Attachment-Based Therapy to look at how early relationships shape current patterns. This approach helps people examine connection, trust, and how they relate to others in daily life.

She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, which focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors. CBT is useful for anxiety, depression, and stress where changing thought patterns can ease symptoms.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Marisa collaborates with each person to pick methods that match their goals and day-to-day needs. She adjusts methods as progress and feedback indicate what is most helpful.

Confirm current session options before booking so you know what formats are offered. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into busy lives, reduce travel time, and allow quicker check-ins when schedules are tight. It can also make shorter or more frequent appointments easier to arrange. Ask about practical scheduling and format details when you match so sessions align with your routine.
