Erin Beskid is an MD and a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor licensed in Montana with more than 15 years of experience in the mental health field. She approaches therapy from the belief that most people already have the capacity to help themselves and often benefit from focused support and practical direction.

Her entry into mental health began with an interest in how thought processes influence sport and activity performance, and she values meeting people where they are – whether that means working within athletic or activity settings or using formats that are easier to access. Over the years she has developed experience in performance coaching, supporting youth and individuals recovering from injury, crisis intervention, work with LGBTQ+ clients, weight loss coaching, and using biofeedback and physiological approaches to address stress and anxiety. She has also coached sport and taught at the high school, undergraduate, and graduate levels.

Erin’s therapeutic style is open, nonjudgmental, and patient while also grounded in practical and theoretical approaches. She emphasizes building on clients’ strengths and employs skills-based methods such as coping strategies, cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, and mindfulness, remaining direct when appropriate. She tailors techniques from multiple approaches to fit each unique client and relationship.

Erin respects those who commit to personal growth and views the process as often lifelong. She welcomes individuals considering whether they might be a good fit to work together.
