About Rodney
Rev. Rodney Kerr is an experienced counselor who blends relational and practical approaches. He uses Gottman Method principles alongside acceptance-based and cognitive techniques to help people facing stress, anxiety, relationship struggles, parenting strain, grief, and life transitions.
Rodney has worked in pastoral and professional counseling settings in South Carolina for over three decades. He holds a Master of Divinity and is a licensed professional counselor - LPC - with long experience supporting people through career change, addiction concerns, and intimacy-related issues.
Background and approach
In sessions he focuses on clear goals and practical steps. He pays attention to both strengths and areas people want to grow. That translates into skill-building, communication practice, and real-world action plans rather than abstract theory.
He draws on a mix of approaches including client-centered listening, cognitive behavioral techniques, acceptance and commitment ideas, and emotional work to help people manage anger, depression, sleep problems, and low self-esteem. He also addresses family of origin and fatherhood issues when they relate to current concerns. Rodney often uses assessment tools to clarify relationship patterns and personal strengths.
He works with people on commitment and communication problems, codependency, abandonment concerns, infidelity, and divorce and separation issues. He brings a pastoral background and coaching perspective to counseling, aiming to help people set achievable goals and make steady progress toward a more satisfying life.

Online support
Approaches that translate to online counseling
Gottman-informed work focuses on communication patterns and specific skills couples can practice. It helps people improve conversations, reduce conflict, and rebuild connection through repeated, practical exercises. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, emphasizes noticing thoughts and values-based action; it helps people move forward despite painful feelings by clarifying what matters and taking committed steps. Client-Centered Therapy centers on empathetic listening and respect for each person's perspective to create a supportive space for change.Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work collaboratively to identify which methods fit a client's goals, preferences, and day-to-day needs. That may mean combining relational exercises with CBT-style skills or using ACT strategies to manage anxiety while doing communication practice for relationships.
Online sessions are offered by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video calls let people practice conversations face-to-face. Phone sessions can be a straightforward check-in when video would be difficult. Live chat or text messaging can suit quick reflections, homework check-ins, or shorter support between longer sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, family, and caregiving schedules.
