Korey Puckett

Korey Puckett is a licensed clinical social worker with 20 years of experience who helps people dealing with stress, anxiety, anger, and depression. He also supports concerns like motivation, self-esteem, coping with life changes, addictions, trauma, grief, and intimate relationship issues. He aims to create an empathic space where people can talk openly about what’s going on in their lives.

In sessions he focuses on practical skills and clear goals rather than long, abstract conversations. He often uses solution-focused work to identify small, manageable steps that lead to change. He also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice how thoughts affect feelings and behavior, and Motivational Interviewing to strengthen readiness for change.

Korey listens for internalized feelings and helps people name and express them. Early meetings include a short review of background and current concerns, followed by a plan for what to work on together. That plan is adjusted as goals shift.

He has provided commentary on relationship topics for media such as rocktheflow.com radio. He offers some evening and weekend appointment times to fit around work and family obligations.

Sessions begin by assessing needs and forming a simple treatment plan. Over time Korey focuses on skill-building, clearer communication, and small behavior changes that add up to better day-to-day functioning.

Approaches that guide online care

Many clients find Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helpful because it links thoughts, feelings, and actions. CBT focuses on practical exercises and simple tools to change unhelpful patterns and is useful for anxiety, depression, and anger. Motivational Interviewing helps people who feel stuck or uncertain about change; it uses respectful questions to build motivation and set small goals. Solution-Focused Therapy looks for what is already working and builds on strengths to create quick, achievable steps toward improvement.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Korey will work with each person to match methods to their goals, preferences, and life situation. Together they review what helps, adjust techniques, and set measurable steps so progress is clear.

Confirm current session options before booking since formats are not specified here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules, for example by reducing travel time or allowing evening appointments. It can also allow shorter check-ins when needed and let people choose whether to use video or audio where available. Ask about specific session formats when arranging the first meeting to find what fits best.
