Kerre Nitz is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Michigan who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, and self-esteem struggles. She also supports people coping with relationship concerns, addictions, trauma and abuse, parenting strain, sleep and eating issues, and the impact of major life changes. Kerre lists coping with natural or human-caused disaster among her focus areas and works with people affected by complex, overlapping problems such as chronic illness, caregiver stress, and compassion fatigue.

Kerre brings eight years of experience in clinical and school settings. She has worked in inpatient care, as a school counselor, as a hospital crisis therapist, and as an outpatient individual therapist. She holds a Master of Arts in Clinical Mental Health Counseling and a Master of Divinity, and she completed a Certificate in Trauma Studies.Teaching and past roles exposed her to a wide range of ages and concerns.

Her approach centers on building a strong therapeutic relationship through unconditional positive regard and trust. Sessions emphasize practical coping skills, grounding strategies, and identifying personal strengths. She draws from client-centered methods, cognitive behavioral ideas, attachment-based perspectives, dialectical behavior tools, and acceptance and commitment concepts.

In sessions Kerre helps people notice unhelpful patterns, practice new behaviors, and make small changes that matter day to day. She aims to help clients reconnect with purpose and move toward goals at a manageable pace. The work is collaborative and paced to each person’s needs.

How Kerre's approaches translate to online therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings and focus on values-driven action. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and coping with life changes. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at relationship patterns and how early connections shape current responses; it can help with intimacy-related issues, abandonment concerns, and communication problems. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with practical experiments; it is commonly used for anxiety, depression, and stress management.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist works together with each person to choose methods that match their needs, goals, and preferences. Sessions can include skill practice, thought work, emotion regulation tools, and reviewing what did or did not help between meetings.

The original biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into busy days, shorten travel time, and allow for brief check-ins when a full session is not possible. It can also let people use tools like worksheets and guided exercises during a session to practice skills in real time. Licensed professionals adapt techniques so progress continues even when meeting remotely.
