About Robert
Robert Frost is a Minnesota LPCC with ten years of counseling experience. He works with a wide range of concerns that include anxiety, stress, addictions, trauma and abuse, depression, and relationship and family issues. Sessions are conducted in English and he does not accept international clients.
Robert draws on practical, evidence-informed approaches in his work. He uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful patterns and test small behavior changes. He also uses Client-Centered Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy tools to focus on coping skills and emotional regulation.
His background includes work in residential, home-based, and intensive outpatient settings. That mix means he has experience supporting people through complex, overlapping issues such as substance use combined with mental health concerns. He has also run group work as well as individual counseling.
In sessions he aims to be direct and human. He uses plain language, practical exercises, and sometimes humor when it fits. Common topics include sleep trouble, anger, career stress, parenting strain, grief, and problems tied to attachment and commitment.
People looking for a straightforward approach will find sessions that focus on noticing patterns, building concrete skills, and testing small changes between meetings. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session via the online options button.
Therapeutic approaches and how online sessions work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying personal values and committing to small actions that connect with those values. It helps people move toward meaningful activity even when anxiety or avoidance is present. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and behavior and teaches practical strategies to test and shift unhelpful thinking patterns. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers concrete skills for emotion regulation and distress tolerance that can reduce impulsivity and intense reactions.Finding the right approach is treated as a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals and preferences, try approaches, and adjust them based on what helps. The aim is to choose methods that fit the person’s needs and daily life rather than insisting on a single model.
The profile does not list specific session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Many people find online sessions make it easier to fit counseling into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when time is limited, or avoid travel on a tight schedule. The therapist will discuss practical arrangements during the matching and scheduling steps so sessions can be organized around work, caregiving, or other commitments.
