Getting to know Todd Puckett

Hello, I'm Todd. "When you really pay attention, everything is your teacher." - Erza Bayda. This quote resonates deeply with me and guides my approach to therapy. Life is about change—expected, unexpected, positive, or traumatic. My mission is to apply the knowledge of my lifetime to help you navigate yours. My journey in the mental health field began in the early 1990s as an Emergency Medical Technician. Over the next 30 years, I gained extensive experience working as a psychiatric technician in hospital and acute crisis unit locations, an intensive mental health case worker, a substance abuse counselor, an investigator of abuse, neglect, and exploitation of the elderly and the adult disabled in both rural and urban communities, and as a therapist in various settings including hospitals, private group practices, and home-based settings with foster children. I believe that the creation of a warm, supportive therapeutic relationship is at the core of healing. I strive to meet you where you are on your life path and bring my knowledge to yours to enrich your life as fully as possible. My diverse background in the healing arts has made me highly effective with individuals experiencing life transitions, crisis and trauma-related concerns, stress, anxiety, and depression management, interpersonal relationships and communication problems, divorce, LGBTQ matters, and geriatrics. My therapeutic approach is holistic, combining Cognitive Behavioral Therapy with elements of Person-Centered Therapy and Positive Psychology. I believe the best healing happens when you heal the whole and not just the parts, optimizing the mind, body, and soul. I was born in Detroit, Michigan, and have lived in various parts of Texas since 1980. When I'm not working, I enjoy yoga, photography, mountain biking, weightlifting, personal training, and attending concerts. I have also been a youth soccer coach, a dance dad, an FFA dad and ranch hand, and a retired CrossFit enthusiast.
