About Korey

Korey Puckett is a licensed clinician in Maryland who helps people manage stress, anxiety, anger, low self-esteem, depression, and relationship concerns. He draws on two decades of professional experience to guide clients toward clearer choices and better day-to-day functioning.

He focuses on practical skill-building and short-term problem solving. Sessions often include identifying thoughts and behaviors that get in the way, and practicing new ways to respond. He also uses motivational techniques to boost commitment to change and solution-focused work to set small, reachable goals.

Korey aims to make sessions a calm place to talk through painful feelings and confusing choices. He listens for patterns that maintain struggles and helps clients try different approaches in the moment. He works with matters such as grief, trauma and abuse, addiction, intimacy issues, parenting stress, career questions, and health-related concerns.

Clients can expect an initial visit that gathers background and begins a practical plan. Korey offers evening and weekend appointments. He combines teaching, direct feedback, and collaborative goal-setting rather than long lectures or vague advice.

With twenty years of experience and credentials as an LICSW and an LCSW-C, he brings a steady, experienced presence to sessions. People who want clear steps, focused goals, and help translating insight into action may find his style a good fit.

How these approaches shape online work

Korean uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice and change thought patterns and behaviors that keep problems going. CBT is practical and good for anxiety, depression, sleep issues, and some behavior patterns.

He also draws on Motivational Interviewing to help people find their own reasons to change. This approach is collaborative and useful when motivation feels stuck or when someone is weighing big choices.

Solution-Focused Therapy appears in sessions as focused goal-setting and small experiments. It helps break large problems into short steps that are easy to try between visits.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Korey will help you decide which methods fit your needs and goals. He tailors the plan based on what you prefer and what produces results in early sessions.

Confirm current session options before booking so you know how appointments are delivered. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life by reducing travel time, allowing evening or weekend scheduling, and letting people use shorter check-ins when needed. Licensed professionals can adjust exercises, homework, and pacing to match what works best for each person.
