Char Midkiff

Char Midkiff offers compassionate, practical therapy to people facing life challenges and grief. She provides hope, help, care, and support to those working toward greater mental well-being and toward discovering their gifts and goals.

Her counseling style blends multiple approaches, combining cognitive-behavioral techniques with cognitive processing, solution-focused work, and a holistic perspective. This eclectic orientation reflects 14 years of clinical experience and a perspective shaped by personal life events.

Char is a licensed mental health counselor in Florida; she holds an LMHC credential and practices under license number MH15789. She completed her degree while working full time and raising a family, and she retired from the City of Orlando to follow her passion for helping others.

Personal experiences have also informed her work—she supported end-of-life care for a professional counselor, is a two-time cancer survivor, and understands blended-family dynamics, as both of her children have other mothers. These life experiences contribute to her seasoned and empathetic approach.

Her clinical experience includes helping people with ADHD, anger management, anxiety, behavioral issues, career concerns, depression, emotional difficulties, grief, life and health transitions, sexual abuse, and substance use and addiction. She offers coping strategies and supportive guidance to help clients meet their needs and make positive changes.

Char welcomes contact from prospective clients who are seeking support on their life journey and who want to explore practical steps toward improved mental health.
