Char Midkiff
If you are struggling with life issues and/or grief you do not have to struggle alone. I offer hope, help, care, and support. Hi, I’m Char and I genuinely love people and enjoy helping individuals like you on their life journey to become mentally whole and healthy, as well as, offer support to those striving to utilize their gifts, talents, and discover their dreams. My theoretical orientation is an eclectic approach to Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Cognitive Processing, Solution-Focused, and Holistic approach. My own life experience gives me a unique and seasoned perspective. Both of my children have other mothers, so I understand the unique challenges having a blended family can bring. I retired from the City of Orlando and completed my degree while working full time and raising a family to pursue my passion of helping people on their life journey. I have also supported an end of life care for a professional counselor and I am a 2x cancer survivor. I have experience in helping individuals in the areas of ADHD, Anger Management, Anxiety, Behavioral Issues, Career, Depression, Emotional Issues, Grief, Life and Health Issues/Transition, Sexual Abuse, and Substance Abuse/Addiction. Remember, if you are struggling with life issues you do not have to struggle alone. I am here to provide hope, help, care, and support, as well as, appropriate coping strategies to help you meet your needs. I look forward to offering support to you as you make positive changes to enhance your life journey. Please feel free to contact me today.

Noel Hartough
How am I supposed to watch college football and not drink beer? "It just feels like nothing is going to be ok and I don't know why." These are examples of things that I not only hear from patients and clients but that I have experienced myself. I know the feeling of dreading lying down to try to go to sleep. Feeling disconnected from, and scared of your world but trying to do your best to get things done is no way to go through life. The only way out is through, but how does one "go through"? That is where good counseling becomes invaluable. I used to believe that knowledge would solve my own mental health issues but I now know that knowing is only a small part of healing. The art of learning how to change requires much more than just knowledge or a degree. Knowing what questions to ask, what someone can handle, and giving an actionable item every session are ways that I can help you. I know it's tough, but the best way to get better is to meet issues head-on with the help of someone who not only knows therapy techniques but has been where you are. When someone shares about their anxiety or struggles with drinking, I can feel their angst and I know what works and what doesn't. I've experienced career anxiety and existential crisis that led me to become a therapist in my 40's after a successful career in music. I am a licensed mental health counselor in the state of Florida with both inpatient and outpatient clinical experience with couples individuals and couples with issues ranging from anxiety and depression to substance use, to grieving the loss of a pet. If you feel like you just "can't get right", please reach out.
