About Amanda
Amanda Winn is a licensed clinical social worker in Indiana with six years of experience. She focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, addiction concerns, trauma, and relationship challenges. Amanda emphasizes practical steps and clear conversation so parents and caregivers can read calmly and decide if therapy might help.
Amanda starts by listening to each person’s story and recognizing their strengths. She uses that understanding to shape short-term goals and helpful skills.
Background and approach
Sessions often include problem-solving, skill practice, and ways to ease intense feelings. Her approach draws on client-centered work and cognitive behavioral tools to identify unhelpful patterns and try different responses. She also uses dialectical behavior strategies to teach emotion regulation and distress tolerance when feelings feel overwhelming.
Motivational interviewing and solution-focused techniques help people clarify goals and take manageable next steps. Amanda has worked across a range of concerns including mood disorders, ADHD, grief, eating and body image issues, and substance use challenges. She also supports people coping with adoption and foster care questions, attachment concerns, and the effects of past abuse.
Her style is straightforward and respectful. Amanda aims to create a space where a person can talk through problems, practice small changes, and build on strengths. She encourages anyone curious about therapy to reach out and learn more.
Approaches that guide online sessions
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and understanding each person without judgment, helping people feel heard and decide what matters most in therapy. Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect and uses practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns. Dialectical behavior therapy, or DBT, teaches emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal skills when emotions become intense.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work together with the person to identify goals and try methods that fit those goals and preferences. Sessions can shift over time so tools that feel useful now can be adjusted later as needs change.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video lets people use visual cues and role-play skills, phone calls can work when internet bandwidth is limited, live chat offers a faster check-in, and messaging supports brief updates or ongoing reflection between sessions. These options help people fit therapy into busy schedules and everyday life.
