About Kerre
Kerre Nitz is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Michigan with eight years of experience in mental health settings. She works with people dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, grief, self-esteem and a wide range of life challenges. Kerre also supports those facing eating and sleeping problems, addiction concerns, trauma and abuse, and ADHD-related struggles.
She trained for a Master of Arts in Clinical Mental Health Counseling and earned a Certificate in Trauma Studies from Regent University. Kerre’s background includes inpatient care, school counseling, hospital crisis work, and outpatient individual therapy. That mix of settings shaped a practical approach to everyday problems.
Kerre uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy alongside Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Attachment-Based and Client-Centered approaches, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. In sessions she focuses on building trust, naming emotions, and helping people notice patterns that keep them stuck.
She works directly on skills such as stress management, anger regulation, communication, and coping with change. Sessions include talking through difficult feelings, practicing new responses, and learning ways to manage symptoms between meetings.
Kerre’s work also addresses more specific concerns such as body image, caregiver stress, chronic illness, attachment issues, and blunted or intense emotional responses. Her aim is practical: to help clients use their strengths and abilities to move forward and handle current challenges.
People who choose her often want clear, emotion-focused work combined with tools from cognitive and acceptance-based therapies. Kerre offers sessions in English and accepts international clients; confirm the current session options before booking.
How Kerre integrates emotion-focused and practical approaches online
Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps people identify and name the emotions that drive relationship and personal patterns. It focuses on feeling and shifting underlying emotional responses that keep problems repeating. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) supports noticing thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then choosing values-based actions to move forward. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early bonds affect current reactions and helps people try new ways of connecting and relating.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Kerre will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. Together they review what feels most useful and adjust the plan as progress is made.
The original biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm available online options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. They also let people use quieter surroundings or lower-bandwidth connections when that helps. Licensed professionals can adapt EFT, ACT and attachment-focused work to virtual sessions while focusing on emotional awareness and skill practice.
