About Kerre

Kerre Nitz is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing from Michigan with eight years in the helping professions. She works with adults on concerns such as anxiety, depression, stress, relationship problems, grief, self-esteem, and addictions. Her listing also notes experience with ADHD, bipolar issues, intimacy concerns, eating and sleeping problems, and parenting strains.

Kerre trained at Regent University, earning a Master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling and a Certificate in Trauma Studies, and she also holds a Master of Divinity. Her background includes inpatient work, school counseling, hospital crisis therapy, and outpatient individual therapy. That range gives her experience across many common life and mental health challenges.

Her approach centers on building a collaborative therapeutic relationship. She names client-centered work, cognitive behavioral techniques, attachment-focused ideas, acceptance and commitment strategies, and dialectical behavior tools among the methods she uses. In practice this means talking through patterns, learning concrete skills, and looking at how early relationships shape current behavior.

Sessions emphasize identifying strengths and practical skills people can use between appointments. Conversations may cover coping strategies for agitation or panic, ways to navigate grief and loss, and steps to improve self-image and daily routines. Kerre also works on communication and boundaries that affect adult relationships.

She welcomes discussion of family of origin patterns and attachment issues when they are relevant to current struggles. Prospective clients should confirm current session formats and scheduling details before booking.

Approaches used in online sessions

Kerre draws from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Attachment-Based ideas, and Client-Centered practice to structure work in sessions. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing difficult thoughts and choosing actions that align with personal values. It can help when anxiety, avoidance, or life changes make decision-making hard. Attachment-Based ideas look at how early relationships shape expectations and behavior in adult relationships and can help with patterns of closeness and distance. Client-Centered practice emphasizes listening and reflecting so people can clarify their thoughts and make their own plans.

Deciding which approach to use is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences and try methods that fit the person’s needs. That collaborative process helps adjust what happens in sessions over time as priorities shift.

Session logistics and formats are not listed in this profile, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counseling into a busy week, reduce commuting, or allow shorter check-ins when time is limited. They also let people choose sessions that work around work, caregiving, or medical schedules without assuming a single format is used.
