About Amanda
Amanda Winn is a licensed clinical social worker who blends practical, skill-focused methods with an empathic, client-centered stance.
Background and approach
She often draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, while also incorporating supportive, strengths-based work that recognizes each person as the expert of their own story.
With six years of clinical experience, Amanda has worked with issues such as stress, anxiety, addiction, trauma and abuse, anger, self-esteem, grief, mood disorders, and challenges around relationships and parenting. Her practice emphasizes collaboration and real-world strategies aimed at improving day-to-day functioning and coping.
Amanda addresses a wide range of concerns including eating and body image struggles, attention-related difficulties, impulsivity, panic, obsessive-compulsive patterns, and substance-related problems. She encourages clients to acknowledge the courage it takes to begin therapy and to build on existing strengths to navigate life transitions and heal from past wounds.
Amanda holds an Indiana LCSW and provides services in English for clients located in Indiana.
How Amanda’s Approaches Translate to Online Care
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps clients notice patterns in thoughts and behaviors and learn practical skills to reduce distress and improve functioning; it can be useful for anxiety, depression, panic, obsessive-compulsive patterns, and many everyday challenges. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on building an accepting, nonjudgmental relationship and supporting clients to explore their own goals and values, which is helpful for issues like low self-esteem, grief, identity concerns, and relationship struggles. Dialectical Behavior Therapy concentrates on teaching emotion regulation, distress tolerance, interpersonal effectiveness, and mindfulness skills to better manage strong emotions and impulsive behaviors.
Working together, the therapist and client evaluate which combination of approaches best fits the client's needs, goals, and preferences. That collaborative process helps tailor sessions over time, allowing techniques to be adapted based on progress and changing circumstances rather than relying on a single method from the outset.
Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, offering flexibility for different schedules and communication styles. These formats make it easier to access regular care while balancing work, family, and other commitments, and they allow licensed professionals to use worksheets, skill coaching, and check-ins in ways that fit each client's routine.
