There are "blend doors" inside ducts, these open/close to allow air to top/bottom-left/right.

You will have to remove parts of dash to get to them.

The heater core has two sides and can plug up on one side.
Try back-flushing the heater core.
The best fix here is a new heater core, but the flush may produce results good enough.
