As a board certified psychotherapist, I believe prioritizing mental health is key to happiness and stability in life. Seeking help can be one of the hardest parts, so congratulations on taking that step! I’ve been practicing for 10 years, I work with a plethora of inter-generational clients aged 21-90 who are struggling with anxiety and depression and trauma.

As a chaplain, I take a psycho-spiritual approach and work with clients assisting with intercultural issues, blended family dynamics, religiosity challenges and grief & loss.

Dr. Erik Frost

Dr. Erik Frost

Psychiatrist

Virtual • District of Columbia


I'm Dr. Erik Frost, a board-certified psychiatrist with over ten years of experience treating a wide range of conditions, including depression, anxiety, trauma, OCD, and bipolar disorder. I attended medical school at the University of Colorado and psychiatric residency at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center. At my practice, I provide comprehensive psychiatric medication management and evidence-based psychotherapy.

It's important to me to work with insurance providers. I work with most insurance providers in the DC, MD and VA area. I use Headway for insurance and billing, but will schedule our visits through a separate platform. For detailed scheduling instructions, please see my website: curatementalhealth.com

My practice is fully virtual. As a result, I do NOT prescribe any "Controlled Substances" which often require an in-person provider. These medications include stimulant medications for ADHD, like Adderall and Ritalin, and benzodiazepines like Xanax and Ativan.
