Kennan DeWitt, LPC

Kennan DeWitt is a Michigan Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 16 years of clinical experience. He focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, mood disorders, addiction concerns, and life transitions. Kennan aims to create a calm, nonjudgmental space where clients can talk through difficult feelings and begin making changes.

He uses practical, goal-focused approaches tailored to each person. That can mean working on coping skills for anxiety, strategies to reduce substance use, or ways to handle grief and separation. He also supports people facing issues related to aging and geriatric concerns and helps caregivers manage stress.

Kennan draws on cognitive behavioral tools to change unhelpful thought and behavior patterns. He combines that with acceptance-based work and client-centered listening so people feel heard and understood. Motivational interviewing and narrative techniques help when someone wants to shift habits or reframe their story.

Across sessions he focuses on clear, manageable steps. Clients can expect to practice skills between meetings and track small changes over time. He emphasizes collaboration and respects each person’s pace and personal goals.

Kennan also notes that he affirms LGBTQ+ identities and works to make therapy welcoming. If you need someone who balances practical strategies with empathetic listening, he offers a straightforward, supportive approach.

How therapeutic approaches guide online work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and acceptance while helping people feel understood and respected. This approach suits someone who needs space to talk through feelings and regain direction.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, centers on noticing thought and behavior patterns and trying out alternative responses. It often helps with anxiety, depression, and managing mood or addictive behaviors through concrete exercises.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, ACT, encourages noticing painful thoughts without getting stuck in them and choosing actions that reflect personal values. It can be useful for life transitions, coping with illness, and ongoing stress.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose or combine methods based on goals and preferences. That way sessions stay practical and relevant to daily life.

Confirm current session options before booking to know which formats are offered. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy routine, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also makes it simpler to continue care while managing caregiving responsibilities or midlife demands.
