Erin Beskid

Erin Beskid is a licensed clinical professional counselor who focuses on helping people manage life stressors and transitions. She uses clear, practical steps to help clients build coping skills and find more balance. Her approach aims to be straightforward and kind, especially for people feeling overwhelmed by change.

Erin draws on 15 years of experience in counseling, coaching, and teaching. She began working with athletes and performance, then expanded into stress, anxiety, and recovery work. That background informs her emphasis on mental habits, body-based feedback, and practical routines that support daily life.

Her style is open and nonjudgmental while staying practical. Sessions often include skills training drawn from cognitive behavioral methods, mindfulness, and emotion regulation techniques. She also uses motivational strategies to help people clarify goals and take steps they can maintain.

Erin has worked with a range of concerns including addiction, ADHD, relationship and communication problems, compassion fatigue, and career or life-purpose questions. She also supports LGBTQ clients and people navigating separation or divorce. Her goal is to help each person identify strengths and build tools that fit their life.

She holds LCPC licensure in Montana and Maryland and practices from Maryland. Erin invites people who are ready to work on coping with life changes to consider whether her practical, skills-based approach might fit their needs.

How Erin blends approaches for online work

Erin uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy as part of her practical toolkit. ACT helps people notice what matters to them and take small actions in that direction, which can be useful when facing big life changes. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and learning new coping strategies for anxiety, stress, or mood challenges.

She also draws from Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills and mindfulness techniques to help with emotion regulation and staying present during difficult moments. These approaches teach specific exercises and habits that can be practiced between sessions and integrated into daily routines.

Finding the right blend of methods is collaborative. The therapist will work with each person to pick strategies that match their goals, needs, and preferences. That exploration can begin in the first few sessions and shift as progress is made.

Confirm current session options before booking, as formats are not listed here. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, simplify travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. It can also let people practice mindfulness or coping skills where they live and then discuss how those tools are working with a licensed professional.
