Psychiatrist

Virtual & in-person • 1.6 mi away • Arlington, VA


I am a Board-Certified Psychiatrist and I have been treating patients across the lifespan for over 15 years. Once my caseload became full in 2022, I founded a small practice (Tandem Telehealth) where I now oversee a handful of talented psychiatric nurse practitioners and talk therapists. The team approach allows us to provide faster access to care for new patients and a higher level of support than you would likely receive from individuals working independently.

Ethan Kaste

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • 13 mi away • Fairfax, VA


Hi, I’m Ethan

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with an M.S. in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Divine Mercy University. My training and experience focus on trauma, Emotion-Focused Therapy, and Person-Centered Therapy.

I believe people are naturally inclined to grow and thrive. Emotions are not just things to manage; they are strengths we can use to live well. I value each client’s story and creating a safe space to share it. I draw on attachment-based ideas, which say people heal best in secure, connected relationships—neither fully dependent nor completely independent, but interdependent.

I work with depression, anxiety, acute/chronic/complex trauma, and relationship distress. I treat individuals of all ages, as well as couples and families.

Credentials and training:

  • Certified Clinical Traumatologist
  • Level 1 and 2 Emotion-Focused Family Therapy
  • Core skills in Emotion-Focused Couples Therapy

Frequently asked questions

Happy patient looking away

Find an expert who truly understands ADHD

Headway helps you stay on track with expert-guided support for ADHD — from finding the right therapist or psychiatrist, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Arlington

Finding the right ADHD provider in Arlington starts with understanding what kind of care you need. Therapists who specialize in ADHD can help with focus, time management, emotional regulation, and building day-to-day structure — often using approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) or behavioral therapy. If you're looking for medication management, a psychiatrist or psychiatric nurse practitioner may be the right fit. Many people with ADHD benefit from working with both a therapist and a prescriber.

Arlington is part of the DC metro area, where demand for mental health care is high and provider availability can vary. When narrowing your search, consider what matters most — whether that's a provider experienced with adult ADHD, someone who works with children and teens, or a specific therapeutic approach. Reading a provider's bio can help you understand their style and decide if they're a good match before booking.

Therapy in the Arlington area can be expensive without coverage, but using your in-network insurance benefits is one of the most reliable ways to reduce what you pay. On Headway, you can enter your insurance details to see estimated session costs upfront, and many patients pay as low as $0 per visit. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans. You can enter your insurance details on Headway to confirm what coverage is available in Arlington and see estimated session costs.
