About Rodney
Rev. Rodney Kerr is an LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) in South Carolina with 33 years of counseling experience. He focuses on stress, anxiety, relationship and family concerns, career issues, addictions, grief, and related challenges such as parenting, anger, and self-esteem.
He offers practical, goal-focused work. Sessions review what is going wrong now, what the person already does well, and specific steps to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. He blends cognitive and emotional approaches to help people manage feelings, improve communication, and make clearer decisions.
He brings both pastoral and counseling backgrounds to sessions. That means he often combines conversation about values with assessment tools to clarify strengths and patterns. He uses inventories such as StrengthsFinder and MBTI when they help clarify career or relational fits.
For couples and premarital work he uses structured assessments like PREPARE/ENRICH and SYMBIS. He also draws on approaches that focus on emotions and interaction patterns to address intimacy, infidelity, commitment concerns, and family-of-origin issues.
Clients can expect a mix of talking, skills practice, and brief homework to test new ways of responding between meetings. He also integrates coaching techniques for career transitions and life changes. To begin, readers are asked to use the site process to match and schedule an initial session.
His practice is conducted in English and is based in South Carolina. He does not accept international clients, and session details such as formats and scheduling are handled through the site match and booking steps.
How CBT, ACT and Client-Centered Work Translate to Online Sessions
CBT focuses on noticing and testing thoughts and habits. In short, it breaks problems into specific thoughts, feelings, and actions, then tries small experiments to see what changes behavior and mood. This approach is useful for anxiety, sleep problems, and low mood.Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) teaches noticing difficult thoughts without getting stuck and choosing actions that matter to the person. It can help with stress, grief, avoidance patterns, and life changes. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening and reflecting what a person says to help them clarify values and goals, which can support relationship and identity concerns.
Finding the right mix is part of the work. He will discuss goals and try approaches that match the issue and the person’s preferences. That decision is collaborative and may shift as progress is reviewed.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current online options before booking. Practical advantages of online sessions include easier scheduling around work or caregiving, shorter check-ins when needed, and the ability to use assessments and worksheets digitally. These features can make it simpler to keep regular appointments and to practice new skills between sessions.
