Marisa Logsdon, LPC

Marisa Logsdon is a Licensed Professional Counselor with 12 years of experience. She helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, parenting challenges, grief, and life transitions. Marisa also supports people facing addiction, trauma and abuse, sleep and eating concerns, self-esteem struggles, and career stress.

Marisa keeps sessions straightforward and practical. She listens first and helps clients name goals they want to reach. From there she and the client work on steps to change unhelpful patterns and build skills for daily life. Her style is warm and down-to-earth, aiming to make the work feel useful from the start.

Her background includes a Master of Arts in Counseling and a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology from Spring Arbor University. She holds a counseling license in Michigan as an LPC and is involved with local counseling networks. Her training covers a wide range of concerns such as anxiety, ADD/ADHD, grief, parenting, and stress management.

Marisa draws on multiple approaches to fit each person. She uses cognitive behavioral ideas to address thinking and behavior, attachment-based ideas to look at relationships, and client-centered methods to follow the client's pace. She also integrates Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills and existential themes when helpful.

Outside work she lives in Michigan with her husband, two young children, and two active dogs. She describes counseling simply: life is hard, and counseling can help. If someone wants practical support and steady guidance, she offers that steady presence in sessions.

How therapeutic approaches work online

Marisa often uses cognitive behavioral ideas to help people identify unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviors. CBT techniques can be useful for anxiety, depression, sleep issues, and coping with stressful events.

She also draws on attachment-based ideas to look at how relationship patterns affect feelings and choices. That approach helps people who want clearer communication and healthier emotional connections. Client-centered methods guide the pace of sessions, with the person’s concerns leading the agenda and the therapist following their needs.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. She discusses goals and preferences and adjusts methods over time so sessions feel useful and fitting to the person’s life. This is a collaborative process where the therapist and client try options and choose what helps most.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy flexible. Video calls allow face-to-face time for skill practice and deeper conversation. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit a break at work. Live chat or text messaging can work for brief check-ins, between-session support, or when typing feels easier than talking. These options let people fit therapy into busy schedules and keep momentum between appointments.
