About Robb
Dr. Robb Kerr, PhD is a Michigan licensed professional counselor with 34 years of clinical and academic experience. He lists stress, anxiety, LGBTQ concerns, relationship and family matters, depression, trauma and abuse, grief, intimacy-related issues, coping with life changes, and compassion fatigue among the areas he addresses. Sessions are offered in English and international clients are accepted.
Dr. Kerr draws on Client-Centered, Psychodynamic, and Trauma-Focused approaches to guide conversations and planning. He encourages straightforward dialogue about what feels difficult, and helps people notice patterns that affect relationships and daily life. Practical concerns such as communication problems, codependency, commitment issues, and control issues are commonly part of the work.
His background includes graduate degrees in counseling and clinical psychology and a PhD in Counseling Psychology. Over three decades of practice and academic work have included work with people coping with abandonment, attachment issues, avoidant personality patterns, and dissociation. He also supports those facing caregiver stress, cancer-related worries, and aging or geriatric matters.
In sessions he focuses on listening first, then building a plan that fits the person's goals. When trauma or abuse is part of the picture, the conversation shifts to managing symptoms and reducing distress in day-to-day life. For relationship concerns he helps people explore communication habits and practical steps to change them.

How Dr. Kerr’s approaches translate to online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on open listening and reflecting what the client says. It helps people clarify what matters to them and decide on practical next steps. Psychodynamic Therapy looks at patterns that repeat across relationships and time, which can help when anxiety, attachment, or repeated conflict show up in social situations.Finding the right approach is treated as a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences, try a way of working, and adjust methods together as needed rather than insisting on one fixed model.
