Dr. Daniel Ringhoff

Dr. Daniel Ringhoff welcomes people facing big life changes and everyday struggles. He writes short, direct plans with each person so steps feel clear. His style is warm and nonjudgmental, and he aims to make therapy practical and focused on what matters now.

He has 17 years of experience as a licensed clinical social worker, LCSW, practicing in Florida. Over that time he has helped people with depression, anxiety, addiction, grief, career strain, parenting stress, and trauma from emotional or physical abuse. He also supports people dealing with relationship troubles, sleep problems, attention challenges, and the strain of caregiving.

In sessions he uses a mix of approaches that fit the person and the problem. That can mean using mindfulness and acceptance skills, working with how attachment shapes relationships, or drawing on cognitive-behavioral and dialectical strategies to change painful patterns. He treats the person as the expert on their own life and offers options rather than one fixed method.

Dr. Ringhoff emphasizes collaboration and clear goals. He helps people notice what’s working, try new behaviors, and reduce things that get in the way of daily life. His tone is encouraging but direct, and he balances compassion with challenges aimed at new perspectives.

If someone is ready to make a change, he focuses on steps that fit their life and values, helping them move toward clearer routines, better relationships, and more manageable emotions.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on helping people notice painful thoughts without getting stuck in them and choose actions that match their values. It can help with anxiety, depression, and coping with life changes by clarifying what matters and building small, committed steps.

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns affect current connections. It helps people see repeated interaction patterns, improve communication, and build more secure ways of relating to others.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss your goals, try methods that fit your situation, and adjust the plan over time. You and the clinician decide together which strategies to use and when to switch course.

Confirm current session options before booking, as the biography does not list specific online formats. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, shorten check-ins when needed, or avoid travel time. It also makes it possible to use written exercises, mindfulness practices, and behavior experiments between meetings so progress continues between sessions.
