About Daniel
Dr. Daniel Ringhoff, LCSW, is licensed in Florida and has 17 years of practice. He works with concerns such as depression, anxiety, addiction, parenting challenges, grief, relationship and intimacy issues, and stress, using approaches he describes as mindfulness, cognitive-behavioral, attachment-informed, and client-centered. He helps people talk through goals and practical steps, while also addressing trauma, anger, sleep problems, and career stress.
Ringhoff focuses on straightforward, interactive work. Sessions involve listening, gentle challenge, and skills practice. He aims to help people notice patterns, test new behaviors, and manage emotions in daily life.
His background includes long experience with people affected by physical or emotional abuse and those involved with the legal system. He has helped people with bipolar disorder, ADHD, dissociation, and co-occurring problems. His practice also addresses caregiving stress, codependency, and difficulties after separation or divorce.
Clinically, he draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Attachment-Based Therapy, and Client-Centered Therapy. These approaches are used to build coping skills, improve communication, and reduce unhelpful thinking and behavior.
Sessions are focused on measurable goals and practical tools. He asks directly about what is most pressing and works with people to set steps they can try between sessions. He emphasizes collaboration and active problem solving rather than long theoretical discussion.

How his approaches translate to online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing thoughts and values-based action. It helps people accept difficult feelings and choose steps that match what matters to them. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful patterns. Both approaches are useful for anxiety, depression, and coping with stress.Attachment-Based Therapy looks at relationship patterns and how early bonds shape expectations. It can help people improve communication and reduce reactivity in close relationships. These methods are presented in clear, step-by-step ways so clients can try them in everyday life.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to identify goals, try methods, and adjust based on what helps. Sessions typically mix discussion, skills practice, and homework so progress can be tracked and adjusted together.
Session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, shorten check-ins when time is limited, and allow practice of skills in real settings. Licensed professionals can use the same ACT and CBT techniques online as they do in person, while adapting exercises for the screen or phone.
