About Greg
Greg Zuk is a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) with 25 years of experience. He focuses on practical help for parents and adults facing stress, anxiety, addiction, depression, trauma, ADHD, and family or parenting challenges. He aims to make the first steps feel manageable and clear for people who are ready to make changes.
He uses straightforward problem solving to identify what is getting in the way and what will move things forward. Greg often draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, client-centered techniques, solution-focused work, and trauma-informed care. He has experience from both inpatient and outpatient settings and has run individual and group sessions as well as family therapy in past roles.
Greg trained at West Virginia University, earning his master’s degree in mental health in 1991, and holds a West Virginia LICSW. Over the years he has helped people coping with bipolar disorder, grief, relationship and intimacy concerns, anger, self-esteem struggles, career changes, and life transitions.
In early sessions he focuses on a clear evaluation - where someone has been, where they are now, and where they want to go. From that he works with each person to build a personal plan with concrete goals. The next phase is action: trying new habits, working through obstacles, and tracking progress.
Greg moved some of his work online to reach more people. He looks to hear each person’s story and to set achievable steps toward change.
Approaches and making online therapy work for you
Greg combines common-sense problem solving with evidence-based methods to help people manage day-to-day challenges. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to reduce anxiety, depression, and stress. Client-centered techniques emphasize listening and collaborating so the person’s own goals guide the work.He also uses solution-focused work that targets small, practical steps to create quick forward motion. These approaches are useful for parenting struggles, coping with life changes, grief, addiction recovery, and ADHD-related challenges.
Finding the best approach is a shared process. The therapist will talk with each person about needs, goals, and preferences and then try methods that fit. Progress is reviewed regularly and the plan is adjusted based on what helps.
