Over the past 10 years, I’ve worked with clients navigating life’s plot twists, anxiety, depression, ADHD, LGBTQ+ identity, and grief, basically all the moments where things don’t go as planned and your brain decides to add commentary. My approach is grounded in both clinical experience and lived experience, including the loss of a baby, being late diagnosed with ADHD, and managing chronic illness, all of which pushed me to learn deeply so I could show up more fully for my clients. I tend to meet people in the messy middle, where things are real, a little complicated, and still very workable.

"You may not be able to change every circumstance, but you can learn the tools to navigate what comes next." I believe therapy should be a space where you feel heard, supported, and empowered. I use a strength-based, person-centered approach, incorporating CBT, DBT strategies, talk therapy, and solution-focused techniques. I help clients explore patterns from the past and understand how their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors may impact their daily lives and relationships. Together, we work to build practical coping skills, recognize your strengths, and develop the tools you need to navigate life’s challenges.

I am a licensed professional counselor (LPC) and licensed alcohol and drug counselor (LADC) with more than 22 years of experience in behavioral health, addiction treatment, trauma-informed care, and mental health services. My clinical work focuses on helping adults navigate trauma, substance use and recovery, anxiety, depression, chronic stress, grief, life transitions, and challenges related to emotional regulation and overall well-being. My approach is person-centered, trauma-informed, and integrative, drawing from evidence-based modalities such as CBT, ACT, motivational interviewing, mindfulness, and mind-body approaches. I'm particularly interested in the connection between mental and physical health, including stress physiology, lifestyle factors, nervous system regulation, metabolic health, and resilience. In my practice through Grow Therapy, I strive to create a collaborative, nonjudgmental environment where clients feel heard, respected, and actively involved in their treatment. Rather than taking a one-size-fits-all approach, I work with each client to understand the experiences, patterns, strengths, and goals that are unique to them. Together, we develop practical strategies to promote meaningful change, greater self-awareness, improved coping, and sustainable emotional well-being.

Starting therapy can feel overwhelming, especially if you've spent a long time carrying things on your own. You may be feeling anxious, emotionally exhausted, stuck in self-criticism, or wondering why the same patterns keep showing up in your life. My goal is to provide a space where you feel understood, supported, and empowered to create meaningful change. I believe therapy should be collaborative, compassionate, and practical. We'll work together to better understand your experiences while also building skills you can use in your everyday life. Although we'll explore difficult topics, therapy doesn't have to feel heavy all the time. I believe humor, curiosity, and genuine connection can be important parts of healing. I tailor therapy to each person's unique needs rather than using a one-size-fits-all approach. My work is informed by Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), mindfulness, and trauma-informed care, and I often incorporate creative approaches such as writing, storytelling, art, or reflective exercises when they resonate with my clients. I also integrate inner child and parts-informed work, along with body awareness practices, to help clients better understand themselves and reconnect with their strengths. I have extensive experience supporting trauma survivors, members of the LGBTQ+ community, and individuals navigating anxiety, depression, life transitions, and chronic stress. I also have a special interest in helping people heal from the effects of weight stigma, body shame, and experiences of being judged or misunderstood because of their bodies. As a PhD student, I am passionate about advancing research in weight stigma and bringing that knowledge into compassionate, affirming clinical care.

It’s tricky being a person. Talk therapy can help. Life can be complicated. Maybe you're going through a big change, feeling overwhelmed by your thoughts, or wondering why you've been stuck in the same patterns. Whatever brings you here, you don't have to figure it out on your own. Sometimes the ways we've always coped stop working as well as they once did. Therapy can help you better understand yourself, navigate challenges, and create meaningful, lasting change. Talk therapy can help by providing a structured space to: Understand patterns in thoughts, emotions, and behavior. Work through stress, anxiety, grief, or relationship challenges. Develop coping strategies and communication skills. Explore personal goals, values, and identity. Feel heard by someone trained to listen without judgment. It's not only for crises or mental health diagnoses. Some people use therapy much like they would coaching, education, or preventative healthcare: as a way to better understand themselves and handle life's complexities.

Hi, I’m Gwen, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. My approach to therapy is honest, compassionate, and grounded in real life. I believe therapy should feel like a space where you can exhale, show up as yourself, and speak openly about what you’re carrying without feeling judged, rushed, or misunderstood. I work with individuals navigating chronic health conditions, substance use, stress, anxiety, trauma, life transitions, relationship challenges, burnout, and the emotional weight that comes with always having to “hold it together.” I also support caregivers and family members managing the emotional strain that can come with loving someone through illness, addiction, mental health challenges, or resistance to care. I understand how overwhelming it can feel when you’re constantly trying to support others while also trying not to lose yourself in the process. Over the years, I’ve worked closely with individuals and families impacted by homelessness, addiction, unstable support systems, medical challenges, and survival mode living. My style is warm, direct, interactive, and down to earth. I’m not the type of therapist who just sits quietly and nods through the session. I believe therapy should feel like a real conversation with someone who is present, engaged, and genuinely invested in your growth. In our work together, we’ll focus on understanding patterns, building healthier coping strategies, improving emotional awareness, strengthening boundaries, and creating meaningful change that fits your real life. My goal is to help you feel more grounded, supported, empowered, and better equipped to navigate whatever season of life you’re in.

As a therapist who has been in the field for almost a decade and a person who has also gone to therapy themselves, I know how scary it can be to take that first step. At the same time think of all you could gain better relationships, more life satisfaction, healthy boundaries, good communication skills, resiliency etc. In my 12 years of practice as a therapist, I've seen that many people struggle to be kind to themselves. A key part of my work is helping clients change their inner voice from critical and confusing to logical and empathetic.

Hi, I'm Julia Kalp. I am a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW), providing therapy since 2012, and a Licensed Social Worker (LSW) since 2009. I have worked in the mental health and social services field since 2003. Over the past 22 years, I've worked with clients ranging from preschoolers to older adults, helping people across all stages of life find balance, strength, and emotional clarity. Before beginning outpatient practice, I worked in treatment facilities and provided in-home services to children, adolescents, and families. Those early experiences showed me how deeply our relationships, environments, and early experiences shape who we are—and how much healing becomes possible when people feel safe, understood, and supported. In my work today, I provide outpatient telehealth therapy for individuals, couples, and families. I specialize in addressing mood challenges, anxiety, trauma recovery, attention and impulse control concerns, attachment needs, and stress-related issues. I draw from evidence-based approaches, integrating trauma-informed and strengths-based care tailored to each person's needs. My clients often describe me as calm, compassionate, and easy to talk to. I believe therapy works best when it feels collaborative—where we combine your insight and lived experience with my clinical tools to build meaningful change together. Whether you're healing from trauma, navigating anxiety or depression, managing ADHD, or wanting to strengthen relationships, my goal is to create a space where you feel seen, supported, and equipped with practical strategies that fit your life. Above all, I want you to leave therapy feeling more confident, capable, and connected than when you began.

Hello! My name is Sam Vamosy, and I’m so glad you’re here and considering working together. Starting therapy can feel vulnerable, whether it’s your first experience or you’ve been in therapy before. Taking that first step isn’t always easy, and you don’t have to navigate it alone. My goal is to create a warm, compassionate, and judgment-free space where you feel comfortable being your authentic self and exploring what brought you to therapy. I value a person-centered approach and believe therapy should be tailored to your unique experiences, strengths, and goals. I incorporate strength-based and solution-focused techniques, along with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), to help you recognize and challenge thought patterns and behaviors that may no longer serve you. Together, we’ll identify your goals by exploring what is and isn’t working in your life and develop practical tools and strategies to help you navigate challenges and overcome barriers. We’ll work at your pace, and adjust goals along the way as your needs evolve. I believe meaningful change happens when we can explore not only the challenges we face today, but also the experiences, relationships, patterns, and emotions that have shaped us. Together, we can identify thoughts that contribute to avoidance, fear, anxiety, or feeling stuck and begin developing healthier ways of responding. Whether you’re experiencing anxiety, navigating a life transition, facing uncertainty, or working through past experiences, therapy can provide an opportunity for healing and growth. My hope is that you feel heard, understood, supported, and empowered throughout the process. I received my Master’s degree in Mental Health Counseling from Fairfield University and became a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) after completing 3,000 hours of clinical experience in an outpatient substance use treatment setting. I would be honored to work with you as you build the life you want!

Great to meet you! I want you to know that when you come into therapy with me, you don’t have to pretend, minimize, or hold everything together. You get to show up exactly as you are — we take it from there together. My favorite part of this work has always been sitting with people one‐on‐one. That’s where real connection and real healing happen. I genuinely enjoy getting to know who you are, what you’ve been carrying, and what you’re hoping might feel different. My style is warm, steady, and honest. I listen closely, ask thoughtful questions, and help you understand the experiences and patterns that are shaping your life. I’m also practical — I like to offer tools and strategies you can actually use in your day‐to‐day life, not just in the therapy room. I work with people dealing with anxiety, stress, depression, trauma, relationship challenges, major transitions, and substance use concerns. Something I tell clients often is this: I don’t want you to just feel better — I want you to be well. Feeling better can be temporary. Being well means building insight, healing, and lasting change. When you work with me, you get someone who shows up fully — present, steady, honest, and genuinely invested in your well‐being. I’m not here to give you quick fixes or surface‐level advice. I’m here to help you understand yourself more deeply, heal what’s been ignored or pushed aside, and build a life that feels more grounded and true to who you are. My style is warm, direct, and deeply human. I listen for the things underneath your words — the patterns, the pain points, the strengths you might not yet see. I’ll challenge you gently, support you consistently, and help you make sense of what’s been getting in the way.

Your first therapy session is for you and your therapist to meet each other and to ask any questions that you have about the counseling process. This is where you can expect your therapist to do the same as they will ask questions to gain insight into your specific situation. In this first session the therapist is doing their part to gather as much information so they can better assess if they are able to meet your therapeutic needs. Depending upon your provider's specialty, you may also discuss the methods the therapist will use. For additional information on therapy methods, please visit the Grow Therapy Help Center.Some people feel nervous before their first appointment, and that is totally normal! Coming prepared with a list of questions for your therapist may help. Remember, you're taking a brave step by seeking therapy, and it is okay to be nervous as you try something new.
