About Amanda
Amanda Winn is a licensed clinical social worker with six years of experience helping people find steadier footing. She focuses on stress, anxiety, addiction concerns, trauma and anger, and helps people who feel overwhelmed by mood changes or life transitions. Her approach centers on the person in front of her.
She listens first and builds treatment around each person’s goals. That means practical skills for managing intense feelings, clearer thinking about unhelpful patterns, and step-by-step plans for change.
Background and approach
Amanda uses techniques from cognitive behavioral therapy to spot and shift negative thoughts and behaviors. She also draws on dialectical behavior therapy skills to teach emotion regulation and distress tolerance. Motivational interviewing helps people who feel stuck or unsure about change.
Sessions are collaborative and goal oriented. People can expect straightforward conversations, practiceable tools, and regular check-ins on progress. She pays attention to relationship and family matters as they affect an individual’s well-being.
Amanda has worked with concerns that include depression, bipolar disorder, ADHD, grief, and challenges around eating and body image. She also supports people coping with adoption and attachment issues, domestic violence, and substance use struggles. She sees people in Indiana and offers sessions in English.
The first step is a short matching questionnaire and a scheduling process that fits the client’s needs.

Therapeutic approaches you can use online
Amanda often combines cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy when working remotely. CBT focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, which can reduce anxiety and improve mood. DBT teaches emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal skills to help manage intense feelings and impulsivity.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the person about their goals and try methods that fit their needs. Together they track what helps and adjust the plan over time so the work stays practical and relevant.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video provides face-to-face interaction for skills practice. Phone sessions can be a good shorter check-in or when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text messaging allow brief, on-the-go support and frequent touchpoints between longer sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work and family schedules and to keep consistent momentum toward goals.
