About Amanda
Amanda Winn is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Indiana with six years of clinical experience. She works with stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship concerns, and trauma and abuse. She frames clients as experts in their own stories and focuses on building from existing strengths.
In sessions she listens first to understand what is most pressing. She uses practical techniques to manage anxiety and stress, and works through patterns that keep addictions and relationship problems repeating. Conversations are straightforward and focused on steps the client can try between meetings.
Her work draws on client-centered methods that prioritize each person’s goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) tools are used to notice thoughts and change unhelpful patterns. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills can be introduced for emotion regulation and distress tolerance when needed.
Amanda also uses motivational interviewing to support change when substance use or other behaviors feel stuck. Solution-focused techniques help set short-term, concrete goals so progress can be checked in small steps. She pays attention to attachment, adoption and foster care issues when these come up.
Clients can expect a practical, down-to-earth approach that focuses on what they want to change. She helps people build skills for panic, obsessive behaviors, mood concerns, parenting stresses, grief, and workplace strain.
