Marisa Logsdon , LPC

Marisa Logsdon holds a Master of Arts degree in counseling and a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology from Spring Arbor University, and she brings a thoughtful, strengths-focused approach to therapeutic work. She holds a counseling license from the state of Michigan and is a Licensed Professional Counselor - a credential that reflects advanced training and clinical supervision. She is also nationally certified, a Registered Social Service Technician, and an active member of the Michigan Counseling Association.

Marisa has received training across a wide range of concerns including ADD/ADHD, anxiety, behavioral challenges, critical incident response, depression, grief and loss, parenting and school-related issues, self-esteem, stress management, autism, career matters, domestic violence, the 5 Love Languages framework, and suicide prevention. She frames counseling as a collaborative process and aims to create a supportive atmosphere where clients can explore current challenges and work toward the goals they set for themselves. She often emphasizes practical strategies alongside deeper exploration to help people address feelings and answer their own questions.

Marisa lives in Michigan with her husband, two young children, and two very active dogs. She believes that "life is hard - counseling can help" and looks forward to offering support in ways that fit each person's needs.

Approach-Focused Online Care with a Licensed Counselor

Marisa draws from attachment-based therapy, client-centered therapy, and cognitive behavioral therapy to support people coping with life challenges. Attachment-based therapy looks at how early relationships shape current connection patterns and helps with issues like relationship difficulties, abandonment concerns, and attachment wounds. Client-centered therapy emphasizes empathy, active listening, and the client’s own goals - it creates space for people to explore feelings and build self-understanding at their own pace. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and teaching practical skills to manage anxiety, depression, and stress-related problems.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Marisa works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods best fit their needs, goals, and preferences. She adapts techniques over time so therapy remains relevant and effective for the individual.

Online therapy offers flexibility and accessibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules, maintain continuity during life transitions, and access support from licensed professionals and therapists without the need to travel.
