About Marisa

Marisa Logsdon is a licensed professional counselor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, grief, parenting strain, relationship struggles, and issues that come with aging and later life. She offers straightforward support for mood concerns like depression and bipolar symptoms, and for practical struggles such as sleep, eating, addiction, and caregiver stress.

Marisa holds a Master of Arts degree in counseling and a bachelor’s degree in psychology from Spring Arbor University. She is a Michigan Licensed Professional Counselor - LPC - and belongs to the Michigan Counseling Association. She has also completed national certification and holds registration as a social service technician.

In sessions she focuses on listening first and helping people answer their own questions. Her work is grounded in attachment-based, client-centered, cognitive behavioral, dialectical behavior, and existential approaches. That mix supports both practical skill-building and deeper reflection about values and relationships.

She uses what fits each person’s needs, helping clients set clear goals and try manageable steps between meetings. Expect conversations about coping skills for anxiety and mood, ways to handle family and caregiving demands, and concrete strategies for sleep, eating, and daily routines.

Marisa lives in Michigan with her husband, two young children, and two active dogs. Her style is calm and direct, aimed at helping people find steady ways to manage life’s ups and downs.

How Marisa’s Approaches Work for Online Care

Attachment-based therapy looks at how relationships shape feelings and behavior. It helps people who struggle with trust, closeness, or recurring relationship patterns to notice those patterns and try new ways of relating. Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, focuses on practical skills to change unhelpful thoughts and habits. It is often used for anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and managing daily routines. Client-centered therapy emphasizes a supportive, nonjudgmental relationship where the person’s own priorities guide the work and goals.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about needs, goals, and preferences and then pick methods that fit. That may mean focusing on coping skills for stress, exploring attachment patterns, or using CBT techniques for mood and habits - all decided together.

Confirm the session formats before booking so you know how appointments will be delivered. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow brief check-ins when a full in-person visit is hard to arrange. It can also support continuity of care for caregivers and people managing chronic illness or aging-related changes by making regular sessions simpler to schedule.
