About Midge
Midge Spong is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in North Carolina with ten years of practice. She focuses on stress, anxiety, grief, self-esteem, career planning, relationship and family concerns, parenting, and coping with life changes. She also lists compassion fatigue, ADHD, and women's issues among her areas of work.
Midge uses straightforward conversation to help people clarify goals and next steps. She combines listening with practical questions that prompt new perspectives. Clients who want help with career direction or health-related behavior changes may find her coaching background useful.
Her background includes a Master of Social Work from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. She also notes experience in career, health, and retirement coaching, which she draws on when clients request practical planning alongside therapy. Her approach stays focused on real-world solutions and everyday pressures like work, family, money, and aging concerns.
In sessions she pays attention to what a person already does well and how to build on those skills. She offers direct feedback and thought-provoking questions rather than long theoretical explanations. This style is often used with people navigating loss, life transitions, or workplace stress.
Midge aims to help people name priorities and take manageable steps forward. Parents looking for support with parenting stress or adults facing major life changes can expect clear, action-oriented conversations. If someone prefers a collaborative, pragmatic approach, Midge presents options and helps plan next steps.
BHow sessions work
How Midge brings practical approaches to online work
Midge uses client-centered therapy to focus on what matters to the person in front of her. That means listening carefully, reflecting what she hears, and helping clients identify preferences and priorities. Client-centered work helps with grief, relationship worries, and making sense of stressful life changes.She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions interact. CBT helps with anxiety, depression, and developing concrete coping strategies for daily stress. Motivational Interviewing appears in her work when clients want change but feel stuck; it involves asking focused questions that increase motivation and commitment to small, achievable steps.
Choosing the right approach is part of the process. She will work collaboratively to decide which methods fit the client's goals and situation. That choice can change over time as needs and priorities shift.

They can also support shorter check-ins, telephone-only conversations when bandwidth is limited, or scheduled sessions that reduce travel time, helping therapy fit into everyday life.
