About Giulia

Giulia Bayuk is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in New Jersey with six years of clinical experience. She offers support for stress, anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, self-esteem struggles, bipolar spectrum mood issues, and life changes. Sessions are conducted in English and are intended for adults and adolescents seeking clearer direction after a change or challenge.

Giulia uses practical, evidence-based methods in session. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thinking and to build concrete behavior changes. She also uses Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills to help regulate intense emotions and improve communication.

In meetings she talks through current problems and helps people set small, manageable goals. She pays attention to attachment and abandonment themes when those patterns come up. Work may include handling family or blended family stress, navigating breakup or separation, and coping with grief or loss.

Giulia also supports people managing eating and body image concerns, caregiving stress, chronic illness or pain, and ADHD-related challenges. She assists with setting boundaries, addressing control or codependency issues, and improving everyday coping skills. The focus is on practical steps that fit into daily life.

To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session. Giulia recommends discussing goals and preferences early so sessions can reflect current needs and circumstances. She practices in New Jersey and works in English only.

Using CBT and DBT skills in online sessions

Giulia uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice thoughts that trap them in worry or low mood and to test small behavior changes in daily life. CBT focuses on practical steps such as breaking problems into manageable tasks, tracking mood and behavior patterns, and building new routines that support goals.

She also draws on Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills to teach emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and clearer communication. DBT tools can be useful for managing intense feelings, reducing reactivity in relationships, and improving problem solving under stress.

Finding the right approach is part of the early work. Giulia will collaborate with each person to decide whether CBT, DBT skills, or a mix fits best based on their goals and preferences. That choice can be revisited as needs change.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, allow shorter check-ins when time is tight, and remove travel time between responsibilities. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises, homework, and skills practice to an online setting so progress continues between sessions.
