He uses a person-centered, solution-focused style that keeps the client's goals in view.

He works collaboratively to find strategies that fit each person’s life and values. Roger’s background includes a long career in mental health in Washington. He earned a Master of Social Work from the University of Washington and holds a Washington LICSW. Over three decades of practice have included work with mood and thought disorders and many stress-related concerns. In sessions he talks through practical coping skills, problem-solving steps, and ways to notice and shift unhelpful patterns. He also pays attention to how attachment and past losses affect current relationships and intimacy. Clients who value creativity and self-expression will find he encourages exploration of those areas. People looking for help with eating, sleeping, parenting stresses, compassion fatigue, chronic illness, or life transitions can expect straightforward, experience-based guidance. Roger aims to help people move past barriers so they can make clearer choices and take manageable steps forward.

Approach-driven online therapy and practical skills

Roger draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to guide online work. ACT focuses on clarifying values and helping people take actions that match what matters to them, which can help with anxiety, depression, and life changes. CBT looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches concrete skills to change unhelpful patterns, useful for anxiety, mood issues, and stress.

He also uses attachment-informed ideas to understand how early relationships shape current reactions and closeness in relationships. That perspective can be helpful for intimacy issues, abandonment concerns, and communication problems. Throughout, the therapist and client work together to choose methods that fit the person's goals and daily life.

Confirm the current session options before booking so you know what formats are available. Many people find online sessions make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. If creativity, mood management, or relationship worries are the focus, online sessions can support skill practice and planning between meetings as part of a collaborative process.
