United Healthcare Optum Medicare Therapists in Greenwich, CT

I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 30 years of experience helping people work through anxiety, depression, trauma, and difficult life transitions. I understand how overwhelming it can feel when you’re struggling, and I provide a safe, supportive space where you can talk openly without judgment. My style is warm, practical, and collaborative. Together, we’ll work to better understand what you're experiencing and develop tools to help you feel more balanced, confident, and in control. My goal is to help you move forward in a way that feels meaningful and manageable.

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!

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.

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.

I’ve always been interested in understanding people — how life experiences, relationships, stress, and challenges shape the way we cope and move through the world. Over time, I realized I found a lot of meaning in helping people work through obstacles, gain perspective, and feel less stuck in the things weighing them down. I know it can be hard to ask for support, especially when you’ve been trying to manage everything on your own. I want clients to feel comfortable being honest about what they’re facing while also working together to find practical, concrete solutions that help life feel more manageable and move them toward meaningful, lasting change. I earned my bachelor’s degree in Psychology from the University of Wisconsin–Madison and my Master’s degree in Social Work with a clinical focus from Capella University. Over the past 14 years, I have worked with children, teens, adults, couples, and families across in-home, outpatient, and telehealth settings. I’ve supported people through some of the most difficult periods of their lives, including severe anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship struggles, family conflict, crisis situations, and overwhelming life stress. Working in a variety of settings and with diverse client needs has taught me how to meet people where they are, adapt to challenging situations, and help clients find realistic ways to move forward. I see therapy as a place to be real about what’s not working and figure out what needs to change. Some clients come in feeling emotionally exhausted, disconnected in relationships, overwhelmed by responsibilities, or frustrated by patterns they can’t seem to break. My role is to help people make sense of what they’re experiencing, develop practical tools that actually fit their lives, and regain a stronger sense of control, stability, and confidence moving forward.

Whether you're working through the lasting impacts of trauma, a teen trying to make sense of your world, or someone in a blended family seeking peace, you're not alone. I've walked alongside many on similar journeys, and I’m here to support yours. Let’s take the next step together. I'm not shy to say it like it is.

I have been a clinical social worker for over 20 years and began my career in the Boston area. I have been practicing in Connecticut since 2008. I work as a LCSW in CT and as a LICSW in MA. Work experience includes community behavioral health, medical social work, hospice, out-patient private practice, geriatric psychiatry, partial hospitalization, and acute in-patient psychiatric hospitalization. I have had the privilege of working with adults ranging in age from 18 to 100+. My combined work experience over the years has helped me to develop my present therapeutic style based first and foremost in compassion, with the knowledge that each client is a unique individual. I trust that things can get better so you can maximize the quality of your life. Let me help you to discover this! My goal is to create a safe, collaborative environment where clients can explore their concerns, patterns or triggers and find strategies for healing. I feel that attention needs to be given to the interconnected areas of the mind, body and spirit. Addressing the whole – mind, body and spirit - and increasing self-awareness, will improve self-acceptance and strengthen self-compassion. Areas of clinical work with adults for individual therapy include, but are not limited to - anxiety, depression, stress related to change and life transitions – college, retirement, move to assisted living, etc.…aging, caregiver stress, grief/loss, parents of adult children with major mental health and/or SUD (substance use disorders), separation/divorce, medical problems, self-care, self-esteem, early diagnosed neurocognitive disorders, and spirituality. Whatever your situation, I look forward to working with you toward your goals.

I am a licensed therapist in Florida and Connecticut specializing in supporting seniors, older adults, and medically complex patients navigating chronic illness, health changes, grief, anxiety, and major life transitions. My work centers on helping individuals who have spent a lifetime “pushing through” finally have a space where they can slow down, feel understood, and receive steady emotional support. My background includes extensive experience with chronic illness, medical trauma, caregiver stress, mobility changes, and the emotional impact of aging. I understand how health challenges affect identity, independence, relationships, and daily life. I help clients make sense of these shifts with compassion and clarity. Whether you’re adjusting to a new diagnosis, grieving a partner, managing multiple medical conditions, or feeling overwhelmed by life changes, you don’t have to navigate it alone. My approach is warm, grounding, and practical. I blend trauma informed care with real world strategies to help you reduce anxiety, manage stress, cope with grief, and regain a sense of control. I meet you exactly where you are, emotionally, physically, and medically. We move at a pace that respects your energy and capacity. I’m committed to creating a safe, supportive space where your experiences are honored and your voice matters. Together, we’ll work toward steadiness, clarity, and a renewed sense of meaning in this chapter of life.
