About Kennan
Kennan DeWitt is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Michigan with 16 years of clinical experience. He helps people who feel overwhelmed by anxiety, depression, anger, addiction, or major life transitions. Kennan aims to make the first step less intimidating and to offer steady support as people work toward clearer goals.
He uses straightforward, practical methods to address everyday problems. Sessions focus on what is happening now and on small changes that can reduce stress and impulsive reactions.
Background and approach
Topics often include anger, coping with addiction, mood problems like bipolar disorder, relationship strain, and parenting stress. Kennan blends several therapy styles to match each person’s needs. He draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to clarify values, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to spot unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns, and motivational interviewing to build readiness for change.
He adapts the approach based on a person’s goals and strengths. Clients can expect a nonjudgmental space where feelings and thoughts are talked through openly. Kennan affirms LGBTQ clients and works to understand each person’s unique background and stressors.
He emphasizes collaboration and practical steps rather than labels. In addition to common mood and stress concerns, he supports people facing caregiving strain, midlife transitions, isolation, fatherhood issues, and challenges tied to health conditions. He also has familiarity with legal and court-related contexts from prior professional experience.

How therapy approaches translate to online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and take small steps toward those values. It is useful for anxiety, anger, life transitions, and when someone wants clearer direction. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and changing behaviors that keep problems going. It often helps with depression, anxiety, impulsivity, and managing mood swings. Motivational Interviewing is a short, supportive way to boost readiness for change and is commonly used when people are unsure about addressing addictions or other habits.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Kennan will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. That may mean blending approaches, trying a skill for a few sessions, and adjusting based on what helps most.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect. Video calls let people use body language and visual cues, while phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text-based messaging make brief check-ins or quick skill practice possible between longer sessions. These options help fit therapy into busy days and different routines, making it easier to stay consistent with care.
