Psychiatric Mental Health NP

As a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner, I take a compassionate, whole-person approach. I’m not here to treat just symptoms. I want to understand you. That means looking at your mind, body, stressors, routines, relationships, and everything that shapes your daily life.

I believe care works best when we do it together. We’ll talk about what you’re hoping for and build a plan that fits your needs, whether that includes medication, therapy support, or practical day-to-day strategies. My goal is for you to feel heard, supported, and steadier as you move forward.

Hello! My name is Samantha Vamosy and I am so happy you are interested in working together. I know starting a therapy process whether you have before or this is your first time can be scary and uncomfortable. I hope we can work through this time together making this journey as helpful and special as possible. My passions have always aligned with helping others and listening in a compassionate, non-judgmental, and curious way. I find real change occurs when a person can fully explore their life in a holistic way. Whether it is current mental health symptoms or past traumas holistic healing is possible for everyone. I received my Master's in Mental Health Counseling at Fairfield University and achieved my LPC after completing 3000 hours in an outpatient clinic for substance abuse.
