About Char

Char Midkiff, LMHC (Licensed Mental Health Counselor), brings a compassionate, person-centered approach to supporting people through grief, life transitions, and emotional challenges. She combines professional techniques with a warm regard for each individual's strengths, helping people build coping strategies and reconnect with their gifts and goals.

She describes her orientation as eclectic, drawing primarily from Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, cognitive processing ideas, solution-focused methods, and a holistic viewpoint to tailor work to each person's needs. Her clinical work is informed by lived experience - raising a family while completing a degree and retiring from the City of Orlando - which contributes to a practical, down-to-earth perspective.

Midkiff has also navigated complex personal circumstances, including blended family dynamics and end-of-life caregiving, and she is a two-time cancer survivor. Those experiences shape her sensitivity to clients facing health, loss, and major life change.

She has worked with a wide range of concerns, including ADHD, anger management, anxiety, behavioral issues, career questions, depression, grief, sexual abuse, and substance use. Her practice emphasizes hope, practical support, and coping skills to help individuals make positive, sustainable changes along their life journeys.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care with Char Midkiff

Char Midkiff integrates Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to guide her online work. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathic listening and collaboration, helping individuals feel heard and supported while exploring their goals and values. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and developing practical skills to reduce anxiety, depression, and stress-related patterns. Solution-Focused Therapy is also used to set attainable goals and build on existing strengths to create immediate, actionable steps toward change.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and she works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods best fit their needs, goals, and preferences. This collaborative process helps tailor sessions so they feel relevant and effective for the individual.

Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, allowing people to access care around work, family, and life demands. For many, remote sessions make it easier to maintain continuity with licensed professionals and therapists while balancing other responsibilities, supporting steady progress over time.
