About Rodney
Rev. Rodney Kerr uses a blend of person-centered and evidence-based approaches to help people manage stress, relationships, and life transitions. He brings 33 years of counseling experience in South Carolina and identifies as a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC). Rodney focuses on helping men who want clearer direction in work, relationships, and personal growth.
He listens first and then helps people set concrete goals. Sessions often look at habits, thought patterns, and emotional responses. He draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people change unhelpful behaviors and to clarify personal values.
Rodney also uses emotionally focused ideas when relationship issues are central. He helps partners improve communication and rebuild connection after breaches like infidelity or separation. For premarital work he uses assessment tools to map strengths and stress points and then targets skills that improve teamwork and problem solving.
Career and life transitions are another frequent focus. He combines job development coaching and relationship work to support people facing change. He also helps with grief, addiction struggles, parenting concerns, anger, and sleep problems by breaking issues into concrete steps and practicing new responses.
His background includes seminary training and work across pastoral and professional counseling settings. That mix tends to show up as attention to values, meaning, and practical next steps. To begin, complete the Start Therapy questionnaire and schedule a session according to the therapist's availability.
How therapeutic approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice thoughts and choose actions that match their values. It is useful for anxiety, low motivation, and coping with life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying patterns of thought and behavior that keep problems going and practicing concrete skills to shift them. It often helps with depression, sleeping problems, and anxiety. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) centers on understanding and reshaping emotional responses in close relationships to improve connection and communication.Choosing the right method is part of the process. The therapist will discuss goals, daily routines, and what feels most helpful. Together they decide which approaches to try and adjust them as progress unfolds.
The original profile does not list specific online session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also lets people try approaches like ACT and CBT in the context of real life, practicing skills between sessions and reviewing how they went with a therapist.
