About Roger
Roger Midgett is a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) in Washington with 33 years of experience. He works with adults who are managing stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, grief, bipolar concerns, relationship and family stress, parenting strain, trauma, and related issues. He also addresses intimacy, sleep and eating problems, anger, self-esteem, career shifts, and compassion fatigue.
Roger uses a person-centered stance. He focuses on practical steps that help people cope day to day. He listens for what matters most and then suggests approaches that fit each person’s situation. He emphasizes finding strategies that address the immediate problem and build skills for the future.
His background includes work in community mental health and a Master of Social Work from the University of Washington. That long experience informs how he balances practical tools with careful listening. He draws on a range of therapeutic methods rather than one fixed method.
Roger often combines cognitive-behavioral techniques with approaches that focus on values and emotional regulation. He also uses attachment-informed ideas to understand relationship patterns. In sessions clients can expect straightforward conversations, goal-focused planning, and practiceable skills to try between meetings.
He is interested in creative expression and how imagination can help with healing. He helps people face the risks of sharing their work and move past blocks that stop them from expressing themselves. For adults juggling home life and responsibilities, he aims to make therapy concrete and manageable.
How sessions work
How his approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and take small, values-based steps even when emotions are hard. It is often useful for anxiety, depression, and life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying patterns of thought and behavior that keep problems going and then practicing different, more helpful responses. It is commonly used for mood, anxiety, and sleep or eating concerns.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. He will collaborate with the client to decide which methods fit best given the issues, goals, and personal preferences. That choice can shift as progress is made and new challenges appear.
Confirm the specific online session formats before booking since the biography does not list them. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy around family schedules and work, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and avoid travel time. They also allow practicing skills in everyday contexts and reviewing strategies between meetings. Licensed professionals can adjust pacing and techniques to suit remote sessions so the work remains practical and focused.
