About Kerre
Kerre Nitz is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing from Michigan with eight years of experience in mental health work. She supports people facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, parenting strains, relationship concerns, addictions, trauma and abuse, and issues around self-esteem and intimacy. She also lists help for sleep and eating difficulties, anger, career stress, bipolar disorder, and coping with life changes.
Before private practice she worked in inpatient care, as a school counselor, in hospital crisis services, and as an outpatient individual therapist. She holds a Master of Science in Clinical Mental Health Counseling and a Certificate in Trauma Studies from Regent University, plus a Master of Divinity from the same school.
Her approach centers on building a solid therapeutic relationship marked by trust and unconditional positive regard. Sessions use client-centered conversation alongside techniques from cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, and attachment-based ideas. She draws on trauma-focused study when relevant.
In sessions she listens for strengths and practical skills the person already has. She works with those skills to address specific problems like panic, low mood, anger, or difficulty managing caregiving demands. The tone is direct and practical, with attention to emotions and behavior.
Kerre has worked with a wide range of ages and situations in clinical settings. People coming from stressful family dynamics or parenting strain often focus on communication, boundaries, and coping strategies in her work. To begin, readers are asked to confirm current session formats and scheduling before booking.
How sessions work
How her therapeutic approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them. It supports committing to values-based actions and can help with stress, anxiety, and motivation problems. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying patterns of thinking and changing unhelpful behaviors. It is useful for mood problems, anxiety, sleep issues, and managing symptoms day to day. Attachment-based ideas look at patterns in close relationships and how early attachment experiences shape expectations and reactions; this can be useful for intimacy-related concerns and communication struggles.Choosing a method is collaborative. The therapist will listen to your goals, try approaches that fit your needs, and adjust as you go. The process is about finding what helps you manage emotions and improve everyday functioning rather than committing to one fixed method up front.
The practical benefits of online sessions include fitting appointments into a busy home life and making it easier to attend from different locations. Confirm which session formats are offered before booking since formats are not specified in the biography. Many people find online work makes follow-up and short check-ins easier and allows therapy to fit around parenting, work breaks, or caregiving duties.
