About Greg
Greg Zuk is a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) with 25 years of experience. He focuses on family and parenting concerns along with stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma, depression, and related issues. He speaks plainly and aims to help parents and individuals take practical steps toward better daily functioning.
He has worked in both inpatient and outpatient settings, including hospitals, treatment centers, and residential units. That background includes group, individual, and family therapy.
Background and approach
More recently he shifted to offering services online to reach people who need flexible options. Greg earned his master’s degree in mental health from West Virginia University in 1991. He holds a West Virginia LICSW - WV LICSW DPE0942387.
Over his career he has worked with adults and children and addressed a wide range of concerns such as ADHD, bipolar disorder, grief, intimacy issues, anger, self-esteem, and parenting troubled children and teens. In sessions he uses straightforward problem solving alongside evidence-based approaches like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy.
He also draws on client-centered methods, solution-focused work, family therapy, human development perspectives, and trauma-informed care. Treatment plans are practical and goal oriented. Typical therapy begins with an initial evaluation to understand where someone has been and where they want to go.
From there he and the client build a personal plan and move into action steps aimed at achievable change.
Approaches that translate well to online therapy
Greg uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches practical skills to manage anxiety, depression, and stress. Sessions often include small assignments to practice new ways of thinking and behaving.He also uses client-centered methods that prioritize listening and building a strong working relationship. This approach helps people feel heard while they set goals and decide the next steps. Family therapy and trauma-informed techniques are also part of his toolbox when relevant, helping address relationship patterns and reactions to past events.
Choosing the right method is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss options and tailor the approach to each person’s needs, goals, and preferences. Together they will try strategies and adjust the plan based on what works best for the client.
Online sessions offer flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into busy family schedules and to continue work between appointments. Many people find the mix of synchronous and text-based options helps maintain momentum and supports gradual change.
