About Robert
Robert Frost is an LPCC - Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor in Minnesota with 10 years of counseling experience. He works with stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, depression, relationship and intimacy-related concerns, and other life challenges people bring to therapy.
He has long experience supporting people with co-occurring mental health and chemical health issues. That background includes work in residential, home-based, and intensive outpatient settings, and he has worked with both groups and individuals on substance use, impulsivity, psychosis, and trauma-related concerns.
Robert uses an approach rooted in client-centered care and trauma-aware practices. In sessions he draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and mindfulness techniques. He aims to keep conversations direct and practical, mixing skill teaching with chance to reflect on what matters most to the client.
Typical work might include building skills for managing anxiety and mood, practicing coping tools for cravings and urges, and learning ways to set clearer boundaries in relationships. He also addresses concerns like sleep problems, parenting strain, career stress, and feelings of emptiness or shame.
People who come to him can expect a straightforward, down-to-earth counselor who uses evidence-informed methods and lived experience with addiction and recovery settings to inform sessions. He asks questions, offers concrete strategies, and checks in about what is useful as therapy progresses.
How sessions work
How his approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying values and taking small committed steps toward them while accepting difficult thoughts and feelings. It can help when someone feels stuck in people-pleasing or avoids speaking up. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) teaches practical skills to identify unhelpful thoughts and change behaviors, which is useful for anxiety, depression, and managing urges related to substance use. Mindfulness approaches offer short practices to reduce reactivity and improve focus, helpful for stress, sleep issues, and emotional regulation.Choosing the best approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss what matters to the client, try methods that fit the person's goals, and adjust plans based on what proves useful. Sessions mix talking, skill practice, and small homework tasks to test new ways of responding in daily life.
The biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into busy days, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. It also lets people practice new skills in contexts that feel real to them. Licensed professionals can adapt ACT, CBT, and mindfulness exercises to remote sessions so clients can keep progressing even when a busy schedule makes in-person visits difficult.
