About Rodney
Rev. Rodney Kerr is an LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) in South Carolina with 33 years of counseling and pastoral experience. He works with adults on stress, anxiety, relationship and family concerns, parenting strain, career transitions, grief, addictions, and related life challenges.
He blends practical talk with goal-focused planning. He helps people identify strengths and growing edges, and sets concrete goals to change patterns that cause pain. Sessions often combine cognitive methods and emotionally-focused work to address communication, intimacy, and trust.
His background includes seminary training with a Master of Divinity and post-graduate study in marriage and family therapy. He has used assessment tools such as PREPARE/ENRICH and SYMBIS with premarital clients, along with career and personality inventories like StrengthsFinder and the MBTI.
When relationship problems are central, he uses techniques drawn from emotionally-focused and relational work to address issues such as infidelity, commitment concerns, fatherhood issues, and family of origin patterns. He also integrates approaches that address anger, shame, and isolation.
People who come to him for parenting stress or family problems can expect practical steps, communication exercises, and coaching-style guidance aimed at clearer expectations and healthier routines. He also offers support for end-of-life and hospice-related concerns.
He describes his role as helping people set and meet goals that lead to more meaningful daily life. To begin, readers should confirm current session options before booking and follow the site process to schedule an initial meeting.
How sessions work
How therapeutic approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying personal values and taking small, value-driven steps. It can help with anxiety, avoidance, and life changes by teaching practical skills for staying engaged with what matters. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It uses straightforward exercises and homework to change unhelpful patterns and reduce symptoms like low mood or sleep trouble. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) targets emotional responses in relationships. It helps people name core emotions and practice new ways of connecting or communicating with partners and close family members.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to match methods to their goals, needs, and preferences. That may mean using ACT tools one week and CBT techniques another, or blending emotionally-focused work with skills practice over time.
Confirm the available session formats before you sign up, as the profile did not list them. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit counseling around parenting, work, and daily routines. They can allow shorter check-ins, quieter scheduling around busy days, or fewer disruptions to commute time. The focus remains on practical steps, communication work, and measurable goals that can be carried into everyday life.
