About Roger
Roger Midgett is a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) with over three decades of experience. He focuses on practical support for people facing anxiety, depression, grief, addiction, and stress. Roger speaks English and works with adults seeking clearer coping strategies and steadier mood management.
He uses an approachable, person-centered style. Sessions focus on what matters most to the client and on concrete steps to reduce distress. Roger aims to make therapy understandable and usable in daily life rather than filled with jargon.
Background and approach
Roger draws on Emotionally-Focused Therapy to help people notice and respond to strong feelings in useful ways. He also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people clarify values and take workable actions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is part of his toolkit for changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors.
Over 33 years Roger has worked in a range of community mental health settings in Washington. That background gives him experience with complex and long-standing concerns, including mood disorders and trauma-related issues. He tailors interventions to each person’s situation rather than applying one fixed method.
He is also interested in creativity and expression. Roger helps people overcome obstacles that block creative work and supports those who want to take practical steps toward sharing their ideas. Therapy sessions are collaborative and focused on realistic next steps.

Online support
How emotion-focused and values-based methods work online
Emotionally-Focused Therapy helps people notice and name strong emotions, then use those feelings to guide safer, clearer responses. It can help when emotions get in the way of close connections or leave someone feeling stuck.Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) emphasizes clarifying what matters most and taking small actions that reflect those values, even when uncomfortable thoughts or feelings are present. It is useful for anxiety, depression, and coping with life changes.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, try different strategies, and adjust the plan as needed. Clients and therapist work together to pick methods that match needs, preferences, and daily life demands.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different routines. Video provides a closer face-to-face feel, phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited, and chat or text works well for brief check-ins or when typing feels more comfortable. These options make it simpler to maintain regular contact, fit sessions into a busy schedule, and try approaches in the context of everyday life.
