About Roger
Roger Midgett is a licensed clinician who helps people struggling with sleep problems, mood, and stress. He uses straightforward, practical strategies to reduce nighttime worry and improve rest. Roger keeps talk simple and focused so families and busy adults can try changes right away.
He draws on more than three decades of clinical work in Washington, using approaches that match each person's needs. Sessions focus on identifying habits that interfere with sleep and building doable routines. He also addresses related concerns like anxiety, depression, grief, addiction, and relationship stress that often affect rest.
Roger favors a person-centered, solution-oriented style. That means clients set goals and he helps find paths that fit daily life. He blends acceptance and commitment ideas with cognitive and behavioral tools to shift thoughts and behaviors that keep people awake.
He is attentive to attachment and emotional patterns that can shape sleep and intimacy. Roger pays attention to how past losses, trauma, or ongoing caregiving stress show up at night. He helps clients notice those patterns and try experiments to reduce their impact.
In sessions he makes space for creativity and self-expression. For people who create or work in imaginative fields, he helps clear blocks that interfere with rest and productivity. To begin, he asks about routines, sleep habits, and what the person has already tried.
How Roger translates therapeutic approaches to online care
Roger often uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and commit to small, meaningful actions. ACT can be useful for managing the worry and rumination that keeps people up at night.He also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify habits and thoughts that interfere with sleep. CBT focuses on changing routines, thought patterns, and behaviors that make rest harder to achieve.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Roger works with each person to match methods to their goals, daily schedule, and comfort level. He checks in regularly and adjusts strategies based on what actually helps.
