I assume you use the standard fx+1 counter idiom to build a counter in
Pd.  But now you want to temporarily add not 1, but a different value,
say: -2 to the current counter value. For that, just set the value of
the "+ 1" object to "-2" for one iteration of the counter, then reset
it it to 1 again immediatly after the counter has fired.  You
can use a trigger object to schedule the logic flow here.
