About Roger

Roger Midgett is a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) with more than three decades of experience in counseling. He helps people facing stress, anxiety, mood changes, addiction, grief, and relationship concerns. He also supports people dealing with self-esteem, sleep and eating struggles, and career or life transitions.

Roger uses a practical, person-centered approach. He listens to what matters most and works with each person to find useful strategies. Sessions focus on real-life steps people can try between meetings, and on adjusting those steps when something does not fit.

His background includes long experience in community mental health and a Master of Social Work from the University of Washington. That history shapes a pragmatic style that values plain language and clear goals. He has worked with a wide range of mood and thought disorders and related challenges over his career.

Therapy with Roger often combines ideas from behavioral and acceptance-based methods with attention to attachment and relationships. He pays special attention to issues that get in the way of creativity and self-expression. People who want help moving past barriers to sharing their work or their feelings may find this approach useful.

Roger aims to collaborate on what will help most, whether the concern is coping with loss, managing symptoms of bipolar or depression, or responding after trauma. He encourages small, steady changes that add up over time.

How therapeutic approaches shape online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, often called ACT, helps people notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them and then commit to actions that match their values. It can be helpful for anxiety, depression, and coping with life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and trying new behaviors to reduce symptoms and solve problems. It is often used for anxiety, mood concerns, and sleep or eating difficulties.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapy process. The therapist will work together with the client to choose or blend methods based on the person's goals, needs, and how they respond to different ideas. That collaborative process includes checking in and adjusting the plan as needed.

The profile does not list specific online session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Many people find online sessions helpful because they can fit therapy into a busy day, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when a full hour is not needed. Other practical advantages include easier scheduling around work or caregiving and the chance to try strategies in day-to-day settings and discuss how they went at the next meeting. Licensed professionals can explain which format will best match a client's energy level, tech access, and goals.
