About Erin
LCPC in Illinois with seven years of experience, Erin Wold focuses on stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, bipolar disorder, ADHD, addictions, and depression. She also helps people with communication problems and questions about life purpose. She works from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT).
Erin frames sessions as collaborative problem-solving. She listens to what causes strain and then uses practical skills from ACT, CBT, and DBT to help people respond differently to painful thoughts and feelings. Conversations often include clear behavioral steps and short exercises to try between meetings.
When trauma, bipolar symptoms, or ADHD are present, she focuses on safety, stabilization, and skills that reduce distress. For relationship concerns she helps clients identify communication patterns and practice new ways of talking that lower tension. For addiction and mood concerns she emphasizes consistent routines and concrete coping strategies.
Erin is direct about goals. She helps people set manageable targets, track progress, and adjust strategies when something isn't working. Sessions balance talking through problems with hands-on tools you can use in daily life.
She offers a straightforward, skills-based style aimed at practical change. People who prefer clear steps, behavioral strategies, and regular practice may find this approach useful. All work is conducted in English and within the scope of her Illinois LCPC credential.

How ACT, CBT, and DBT shape online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and take small actions toward those values despite difficult thoughts and feelings. It is often used for anxiety, stress, and questions about life purpose.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and testing new behaviors. CBT tends to include homework and concrete skill practice for depression, anxiety, and addiction triggers.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) teaches distress-tolerance, emotion regulation, and interpersonal skills. It is useful when strong emotions or relationship conflicts get in the way of daily functioning.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. That choice can change over time as needs evolve.
