Getting to know Amanda Wentz

Hi there, I'm Amanda! My name is Amanda Wentz, and I have been practicing as an LCSW since 2014. I earned my Master's in Social Work from NC State University. I believe that between my expertise as a clinical professional and your expertise on yourself, together we can work as a team to help you be the best version of YOU! My expertise lies mainly in the areas of trauma, anxiety, depression, life stressors, work stressors, relationship turmoil, and parenting skills. My approach The main approaches I utilize when providing treatment are Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Trauma-focused CBT, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Strengths-based therapy, and motivational interviewing. I am certified in TFCBT and am a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional (CCTP). When working with clients, I focus on increasing the tools they need to be successful when approaching their biggest concerns, whether that be general anxiety, panic attacks, reliving trauma, or other challenges. I believe knowledge is power, and learning about what is happening in your body while discovering which tools best address your symptoms is one of the best approaches. My communication style Building rapport is extremely important to me, and however long that takes, it's worth it to make sure we have a solid foundation to work from. I will never force anyone to talk about something they aren't comfortable discussing. I might suggest it could be helpful, but I do not believe the point of therapy is for me to tell you what to do. I like communication to be open and collaborative. As I mentioned above, I am not an expert on you.
