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’m Michele Ellis, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker passionate about helping individuals improve their mental health and overall well-being. With over a decade of experience, I’ve developed a deep understanding of the social, emotional, and psychological challenges people face. My approach is warm, compassionate, and tailored to your unique needs—meeting you exactly where you are in your journey.

I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a Master’s degree in Social Work from Fordham University. My background includes both hospital social work and correctional mental health.

I’ve spent much of my career helping people and families navigate some of life’s most difficult moments—from medical crises and unexpected trauma to serious illness, end-of-life decisions, and mental health challenges. In hospital settings, including the Emergency Department and ICU, I often helped families navigate overwhelming situations, connect with resources, and advocate for themselves and their loved ones.

Working in a COVID ICU especially shaped how I understand stress, trauma, family systems, and empathy. It taught me that when one person is struggling, the entire family can be affected.

I later brought that experience into correctional mental health, where I provide counseling, crisis intervention, assessment, and support.

I work primarily with adults experiencing anxiety, trauma/PTSD, depression, grief, life transitions, and family stress.I bring both professional experience and a very human perspective to therapy, with the goal of creating a space where you can feel understood, supported, and comfortable being yourself.

I am ready to listen and to help you in any way I can. I have helped many people reduce anxiety and depression and I would like to help you as well. I have worked with college students, new moms, men, people dealing with work/life balance, grief and loss and older adults who are going through various issues such as struggles with their adult children and health issues. Let's turn some of those tears into laughter. Let's talk.

My 18 years of experience in this field enables me to address a wide range of patient needs. I am committed to providing flexible, nonjudgmental, and culturally sensitive care to a diverse patient population. From the time of the first appointment (and consistently thereafter), the patient and I will review their reasons for seeking care, discuss current challenges and stressors, and identify treatment goals. This information guides my formulation of an individualized treatment plan tailored to the patient’s specific needs and objectives.
