About Kerre
Kerre Nitz is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Michigan who helps people manage stress, anger, anxiety, and grief. She also supports people facing depression, self-esteem and body image concerns, addictions, and life transitions. Kerre speaks English and works with clients across state lines and internationally through online services.
Kerre brings about eight years in the helping professions, including roles in inpatient care, school counseling, hospital crisis work, and outpatient individual therapy.
Background and approach
She holds a Master of Arts in Clinical Mental Health Counseling and a Certificate in Trauma Studies from Regent University. She also earned a Master of Divinity from Regent University focused on church and ministry work. Her practice centers on building a trusting relationship with each person.
She uses a warm, client-centered stance that emphasizes unconditional positive regard. Sessions focus on identifying strengths and practical steps clients can use between meetings. Kerre draws from a range of approaches to match what a person needs.
She commonly uses cognitive behavioral techniques to shift unhelpful thinking, acceptance and commitment ideas to clarify values and action, and attachment-based perspectives to understand relationship patterns. Dialectical skills and other mindfulness tools are used when people need emotional regulation strategies. Sessions are conversational and goal-focused.
Kerre aims to help clients notice what works, practice new coping skills, and move toward clearer purpose and more satisfying daily life. She frames progress as steady effort rather than instant fixes.

How Kerre’s Approaches Work Online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and take small, meaningful steps toward those values. It focuses on accepting difficult thoughts and feelings while committing to actions that match personal goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) aims to spot and shift unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. It often uses short exercises and homework to practice new skills between sessions. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns affect current connections and helps people notice and change repeating cycles that cause distress.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Kerre collaborates with each person to pick techniques that fit their goals and preferences. She often blends approaches so the plan matches the issue - for example using CBT tools for thought patterns and ACT ideas for motivation. The choice is revisited as progress is made.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make care more flexible. Video is useful for full conversation and visual cues, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or for quick check-ins, live chat can suit shorter problem-focused exchanges, and messaging supports frequent brief reflections or tracking homework. These options help fit therapy into work, school, caregiving, or travel schedules while maintaining steady therapeutic work.
