About Greg

Greg Zuk is a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker who helps people facing stress, anxiety, addiction, ADHD, depression, trauma, and parenting concerns. He emphasizes practical steps and clear goals so families and individuals can begin making changes soon. Greg writes plainly and focuses on real-life solutions rather than jargon.

He has 25 years of experience in inpatient and outpatient settings, including hospitals, treatment centers, and residential units. Over the years he has provided group and individual care, and he has worked with people at many stages of life.

Background and approach

His background includes a master's degree in mental health from West Virginia University, earned in 1991. Greg uses problem solving as a starting point. He pairs that with approaches such as cognitive behavioral therapy, client-centered work, solution-focused techniques, family therapy, and trauma-informed methods.

Sessions focus on identifying where someone is now, where they want to be, and clear steps to get there. In early visits he completes an evaluation to understand needs and goals. Together with the person he develops a personal plan and then moves into an action phase.

That phase focuses on small, manageable changes and practical skills to reduce symptoms and improve daily life. He offers online care from West Virginia, combining his years of traditional practice with remote formats. Greg aims to listen closely, set realistic goals, and help people make steady progress toward the changes they want.

Approaches and online care that fit your life

Greg combines several evidence-based techniques to address common concerns. Cognitive behavioral therapy helps identify unhelpful thoughts and teaches practical skills to change behaviors, which can ease anxiety, depression, and focus problems. Client-centered work focuses on listening and building a collaborative relationship so the person feels heard and can choose change at their own pace. Trauma-informed methods pay attention to how past hurt affects present reactions and aim to create a steady, respectful path forward that reduces reactivity and supports recovery.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Greg treats this as a collaborative process and will help you decide which methods match your needs, goals, and preferences. Sessions typically begin with an evaluation and a simple plan, then adapt over time based on what does and does not help.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect. Video calls are useful for face-to-face conversation and shared visual cues. Phone sessions can work when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging let people check in between sessions or fit brief coaching into a busy day. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent while balancing work, school, and family life.
