About Greg
LICSW in West Virginia with 25 years of experience. Greg Zuk helps people concerned about stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma, parenting, depression, relationship and family problems, grief, intimacy, anger, self-esteem, career issues, bipolar disorder, coping with life changes, coaching, and ADHD. He works with adults and children and uses a mix of practical problem solving and structured therapy methods.
Greg spent much of his career in hospital, treatment center, and residential settings. He provided group work, individual sessions, and family therapy in those roles. Recently he shifted to online work to reach more people outside those facilities.
His approach starts with an initial evaluation to map where someone has been, where they are now, and where they want to go. From there he and the client build a personal plan with clear goals. The next phase is action-oriented work that focuses on steps toward change and overcoming obstacles.
Greg uses common-sense problem solving alongside several named approaches. He applies Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), client-centered methods, solution-focused work, family therapy concepts, human development perspectives, and trauma-informed care. Sessions tend to be practical and task-focused when appropriate.
He holds a master's degree in mental health from West Virginia University and identifies as a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker, LICSW. That credential is listed for West Virginia. His background includes work with a broad range of mental health concerns across inpatient and outpatient settings.

How Greg applies therapies in remote sessions
Greg commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and trauma-informed approaches. CBT breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful patterns; it is often used for anxiety, depression, and some addiction-related behaviors. Trauma-informed approaches focus on recognizing how past harm affects current responses and on creating steady, manageable steps toward safety and coping.He also works with solution-focused and client-centered ideas. Solution-focused work zeroes in on small, concrete changes a person can try right away. Client-centered methods emphasize listening and reflecting so the person’s own priorities guide the work. Deciding which mix to use is collaborative; the therapist and client assess needs, goals, and preferences together and adjust the plan over time.
The biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow quicker check-ins during life transitions. Some formats also let sessions be shorter or use audio only when that helps with bandwidth or scheduling. Greg moved to online work to extend reach beyond inpatient and outpatient settings, and he will discuss practical arrangements when you set up the first appointment.
