About Rodney
Rev. Rodney Kerr is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with three decades of counseling experience in South Carolina. He blends practical coaching with counseling to help people facing stress, relationship strain, parenting challenges, grief, addiction concerns, and life transitions.
He writes plainly and focuses on clear goals people can use day to day. Clients can expect straightforward conversations about what is getting in the way and what might change. He emphasizes strengths alongside areas to grow so people leave sessions with simple, achievable steps.
Background and approach
Sessions often include skills for managing anxiety, improving communication, and handling conflict in close relationships. Rodney draws from several therapeutic approaches to match each person's situation. He uses elements of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, cognitive-behavioral techniques, and emotionally focused work to address thoughts, feelings, and relationship patterns.
He also brings client-centered listening to make room for each person's values and priorities. His background includes pastoral counseling, life and relationship coaching, and career transition work. That mix shapes a practical style that values both insight and action.
He has long used assessment tools and coaching instruments to clarify strengths and next steps. Sessions are offered in English and held online by video, phone, live chat, or text messaging. He practices in South Carolina and works with adults who want help sorting parenting demands, improving relationships, or finding steadier footing during change.

Approaches you can use online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy focuses on noticing thoughts and choosing actions that match personal values. It can help with anxiety, avoidance, and finding direction when life feels stuck. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at the links between thoughts, emotions, and behaviors and teaches practical skills for reducing worry, improving sleep, and shifting unhelpful patterns. Client-Centered Therapy gives space for a person to be heard and understood, which helps when someone needs calm, nonjudgmental support during major life changes.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and what has or has not helped before. From there he mixes methods in a collaborative way so sessions fit the person's needs rather than following a single template.
Online therapy offers flexibility for busy schedules and varied needs. Video calls let people use visual cues for relationship and parenting conversations. Phone sessions are useful when bandwidth is limited or when a shorter check-in fits a break at work. Live chat and text messaging support ongoing coaching-style reminders, short updates, or quick practice of new skills between sessions.
