About Me
I'm Amanda Jones, LCSW, founder of Trust Her Process — a trauma-focused practice devoted to helping women in Texas trust their own process of healing. With over 15 years of experience in trauma-informed care, I provide virtual psychotherapy grounded in EMDR, relational, and holistic approaches, creating space for women to reconnect with themselves and reclaim their strength. My work centers on depth over speed — gently realigning clients with their needs, their story, and their own capacity to heal.
Education & Experience
I hold an MSW in Clinical Social Work from New Mexico Highlands University, a BA in Sociology with a minor in Women's Studies from the University of New Mexico, and an AAS in Paralegal Studies from Santa Fe Community College. With over 15 years of trauma-informed care experience, I specialize in EMDR, relational, and integrative therapies to facilitate deep, lasting healing. Throughout my career, I've led therapy groups designed to help women heal in community, drawing on collective support and shared growth. My experience spans private practice, group counseling, group counseling, and emergency psychiatric services, where I have also provided expert testimony in OPC hearings. I am a Certified EMDR Therapist & CIT and hold advanced certifications, including CCTP-II, CTMH, CIMHP, CSTS, and C-DBT.
Professional & Volunteer Affiliations
Dedicated to advocacy and professional leadership, I previously served on the NASW National Committee on Women (NCOW) and the NASW-TX Women's Rights Committee. I have a longstanding commitment to community service, including founding a chapter of the Transplant Recipients International Organization (TRIO) to support transplant recipients and their families. I'm a passionate lifelong learner, committed to ongoing continuing education and consultation to deepen my clinical practice. As founder of Trust Her Process, a dba of Seasons Counseling, PLLC, I provide EMDR therapy and trauma-informed care, and I'm currently an EMDR Consultant-in-Training offering consultation to clinicians pursuing EMDRIA certification.
