Erica Laskin

Erica Laskin is the owner of Blindspot.light PLLC. Through a collaborative blend of therapy and coaching, Erica helps clients uncover their blind spots (the beliefs, experiences, and patterns that dictate our lives from behind the scenes). She empowers her clients to identify what needs healing, strengthen their relationship with themselves, and intentionally create what comes next. Erica believes that insight and self-awareness are powerful tools, but it’s what we do with this knowledge that actually creates change. Her approach is rooted in the belief that clients are the experts on themselves. Building trust with her clients is one of Erica’s highest priorities because it creates the foundation from which transformation becomes possible. Her approach is best suited for people who have the capacity and desire to explore past experiences and patterns, take ownership of what is within their control, and experiment with new ways of relating to themselves, others, and their lives. Many of Erica’s clients find her at a point where their life is generally stable, but something still feels unresolved, repetitive, or ready to change. They aren’t looking to be fixed or given the answers. They’re looking for a trusted thought partner who can offer perspective, illuminate blind spots, ask meaningful questions, and support them in co-creating lasting change. Erica specializes in working with trauma, inner-child healing, relationships, intimacy, and communication. She approaches her work through a trauma-informed and anti-racist lens and is an LGBTQ+ affirming and sex-positive therapist. Erica has been committed to her personal growth and development for over a decade. She has completed Landmark Education’s “Curriculum for Living” as well as a five month coaching program through Desire on Fire. Her own personal development work has included healing shame and guilt, challenging old conditioning, and learning to more fully embody her authentic self. Born in China and raised in Baltimore, MD, Erica was adopted into a multiracial and multicultural family. This life experience has allowed her to explore the concepts of identity, attachment, relationships, and belonging from a very young age. It is her hope and intention that by being transparent around her own journey, her clients feel safe doing the same.
