Meet the Host: Dr. Heather Putney — Founder and Executive Director of Transformative Neurotherapy
What happens when traditional therapy hits a wall? For Dr. Heather Putney, this question became the catalyst for a revolutionary approach to mental health. After founding Untethered Therapy in 2014, she noticed that despite using cutting-edge therapeutic modalities, some clients remained frustratingly "brain stuck." Rather than accepting this limitation, she dove back into her biology roots to find answers.
Dr. Putney's journey from aspiring veterinarian to pioneering neurotherapist reveals how unexpected paths often lead to breakthrough innovations. "I originally thought I was going to be a veterinarian," she shares, "but I felt redirected towards human psychology... it was more important to save families and that would have a longer legacy." This pivotal shift led her to establish Untethered Therapy, focusing initially on couples work before expanding into addiction and trauma recovery.
The founding of Transformative Neurotherapy came from Dr. Putney's determination to address healing at the physiological level. By researching neurofeedback and ultimately developing neuromodulation techniques, she created a holistic approach that complements traditional therapy by targeting the biological foundations of psychological challenges. Her refreshingly straightforward motivation? "To help people heal faster. I'm not a very patient person and I don't like suffering for myself, my kids, or anyone around me." This commitment to efficiency and relief drives her mission to help people reach their "highest and best selves" without unnecessary delay or struggle.
