Giulia Bayuk , LCSW

Giulia Bayuk uses practical, skills-based therapy to help people manage overwhelming feelings and make clearer choices. She is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker - LCSW - practicing in New Jersey with six years of experience. Giulia writes in plain language and focuses on helping clients feel understood and more steady day to day.

She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy to teach tools that reduce panic, lift mood, and improve relationships. Sessions often include concrete exercises, coping strategies, and steps to shift harmful thinking patterns. The work centers on what the person wants to change and habits they can practice between sessions.

Giulia helps with a wide range of concerns including stress, anxiety, depression, bipolar mood challenges, and grief. She also supports people navigating relationship strain, intimacy-related issues, body image and eating concerns, and challenges tied to parenting and blended family dynamics.

Additional focus areas include attachment and abandonment concerns, communication problems, codependency, caregiver stress, chronic pain or illness, dissociation, and experiences of domestic violence or trauma. She pays attention to how past hurts affect present choices and relationships.

Sessions are offered in English. Giulia approaches therapy as a collaborative process and aims to create a calm space where clients can talk through painful topics, practice new skills, and plan realistic next steps toward their goals.

How CBT and DBT work online with flexible session formats

Giulia uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. CBT sessions focus on specific problems, practical exercises, and homework that builds new habits over time. Dialectical Behavior Therapy emphasizes emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and clearer communication tools for intense feelings and relationship strain, offering skills people can practice between sessions.

Finding the right approach is collaborative. Giulia will talk about goals, try tools, and adjust methods to fit what a client needs and prefers. Together the therapist and client choose which skills to focus on and when to shift direction as progress unfolds.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives. Video lets the pair work face to face for skill practice, phone calls offer a lower-bandwidth option, live chat supports quicker check-ins, and messaging can keep work moving between appointments. These options help people keep continuity of care while balancing work, family, and other commitments.
