About Roger

Roger Midgett is a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) with three decades of experience helping people navigate stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, and relationship concerns. He focuses on practical steps that people can use right away. Roger keeps sessions straightforward and centered on each person's needs and goals.

He draws on several approaches to tailor care to the situation. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps identify unhelpful thought patterns and change behaviors. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy supports clearer values and actions even when feelings are strong. Attachment-Based methods look at how early relationship patterns affect current connections.

Roger describes his style as person-centered and solution-focused. He works collaboratively to find strategies that fit each person's life. He also pays attention to issues like creativity, self-expression, and the barriers that block them.

Over his career he has worked in settings that include community mental health in Washington. That background informs a practical focus on coping skills, managing mood, and improving everyday functioning. His experience includes supporting people facing grief, trauma, parenting stress, codependency concerns, and work-related compassion fatigue.

People who reach out can expect straightforward conversation, goal-oriented planning, and flexibility in choosing techniques. He emphasizes small, usable changes that add up over time. To start, visitors are asked to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule according to availability.

How Roger’s Approaches Translate to Online Work

Roger uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, which is useful for anxiety, depression, and many everyday problems. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people clarify what matters to them and take actions that reflect those values even when emotions are difficult. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns affect current connections and can guide work on intimacy and trust.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Roger will listen to your needs, goals, and preferences and then suggest methods that fit. That means plans can include skills practice, value clarification, or relationship-focused exercises depending on what helps most.

If you are considering online therapy, confirm the specific session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, allow shorter check-ins on a lunch break, or reduce travel time. It also supports continuity of care when scheduling or location changes occur. Talk with Roger during the intake process about what will fit your routine and goals so sessions can be arranged in a way that works for you.
