About Daniel

Dr. Daniel Ringhoff welcomes people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, addiction, or major life changes. He writes plainly and listens carefully so clients can say what matters.

His tone is warm and direct, and he focuses on practical steps people can use right away. He brings 17 years of experience as a licensed clinical social worker - LCSW - in Florida. He has supported people confronting trauma and abuse, grief and relationship struggles, parenting strain, sleep problems, and work or career concerns.

Background and approach

He also helps with attention difficulties, anger, bipolar mood swings, and challenges that come with caregiving or major transitions. In sessions he uses familiar, evidence-based methods such as cognitive behavioral techniques, acceptance and commitment ideas, and emotion-regulation skills from dialectical approaches. He also draws on attachment-informed work and a client-centered stance that focuses on each person’s priorities.

Conversations move between problem-solving, new perspective-taking, and skill practice. Dr. Ringhoff aims to be respectful and nonjudgmental while also offering gentle challenges that help clients try new things.

He emphasizes choices people can test between sessions and checks progress together. That makes therapy feel like a collaboration rather than a lecture. People who want clear guidance and practical tools often find this approach helpful.

He invites those ready to make changes to take a first small step and schedule a session to see if it feels like a good fit.

Online support

How therapeutic approaches work online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on helping people notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then take actions that match their values. It can help with anxiety, depression, addiction, and life transitions by making daily choices clearer. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches practical tools to change unhelpful patterns; it is useful for anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and stress. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, includes skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and better communication, which can help with intense emotions, anger, and relationship strain.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before. Then together they will pick strategies to try and adjust them based on how things go, making the process collaborative and flexible.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video lets people use visual cues and longer conversations. Phone sessions are helpful when bandwidth is limited or a quieter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging suit brief check-ins, coaching-style guidance, or ongoing support between visits. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and varied routines.
