About Erin
Erin Beskid, MD, LCPC, helps people manage stress and anxiety and build clearer routines that fit their lives. She keeps sessions practical and direct, focusing on small skills people can use right away. Erin aims to help clients feel steadier and more able to handle daily demands.
She began working with performance and sport and kept following what shapes how people think and feel. That led to roles in coaching, teaching, biofeedback work, and supporting people through injury and crisis.
Background and approach
Those experiences inform her practical, skills-based approach today. Erin uses a mix of cognitive and behavioral tools, mindfulness exercises, and acceptance-oriented strategies. She also draws on dialectical behavior ideas when people need help with emotion regulation and coping under pressure.
Sessions often include simple exercises, breathing or grounding practices, and concrete steps to try between meetings. Her style is open and nonjudgmental while still being straightforward when direction helps. She leans on strengths clients already have and builds new habits one small step at a time.
That makes therapy feel doable even when life feels overwhelming. Erin has 15 years of experience and works with concerns like anxiety, depression, self-esteem, career questions, ADHD, addictions, relationship and communication problems, and coping with life changes. She practices in Maryland and offers care that combines real-world coaching with clinical methods.
Therapeutic approaches for online care
Erin commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in her online work. ACT focuses on helping people notice what matters most and take steps toward those values even when difficult thoughts or feelings are present, which can be useful for anxiety and life transitions. CBT targets unhelpful thinking and behaviors with clear exercises and homework to reduce symptoms and build coping skills.She also draws on Dialectical Behavior Therapy when people need skills for regulating strong emotions and improving communication under stress. That approach breaks big problems into teachable skills like distress tolerance and emotional regulation that can be practiced between sessions. Choosing the right mix of methods is a collaborative process and Erin will work with the client to match approaches to their goals, preferences, and daily routines.
Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility. Video calls make it easier to work through exercises in real time, phone sessions can fit a work break or require less bandwidth, and chat or messaging can be useful for shorter check-ins or when writing helps process thoughts. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent around busy schedules and life demands.
