About Lucetry
Dr. Lucetry Dalton-Trusty is a Michigan psychologist with 10 years of clinical experience. She works with adults on stress, anxiety, relationships, family issues, depression, coping with life changes, LGBT concerns, trauma and abuse, grief, intimacy-related issues, parenting, anger, self-esteem, career questions, bipolar disorder, coaching needs, compassion fatigue, and ADHD. Sessions aim to be interactive and collaborative, with practical tasks to try between meetings.
Dr. Dalton-Trusty favors an integrative, evidence-informed approach. She blends methods to fit each person rather than using the same plan for everyone. Sessions often include brief “homework” exercises intended to encourage reflection, new perspectives, and cognitive reframing.
Her style is engaging and occasionally lightened with humor when appropriate. She describes sessions as collaborative, where people and psychologist learn from one another. That approach is meant to help clients notice patterns, practice new responses, and build decision-making skills.
Dr. Dalton-Trusty has worked in several states during her training and career. That experience includes providing care to people across the lifespan and from diverse cultural backgrounds. Her background informs how she adapts conversations and strategies to fit different life circumstances.
Practical goals often come up early in work with her: clearer communication in relationships, managing anxiety or mood swings, coping with grief or life transitions, and addressing work or parenting stress. She helps people identify options and take small, concrete steps toward change.
How her approaches translate to online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them. It focuses on values-based action, which can be useful for life decisions, anxiety, and motivation issues.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It uses clear exercises and practical tools to test assumptions and try different behaviors, which can help with anxiety, depression, and stress management.
Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening and collaboration. The therapist follows the person’s lead, reflecting concerns and supporting them in finding their own solutions for relationship and identity questions.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Dr. Dalton-Trusty will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful, and then together they will decide which methods to try and how to pace the work.
If you are considering online sessions, confirm the current session options before booking. This profile does not list formats, so checking available ways to meet is important. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into school, work, or busy days. They can also allow shorter check-ins, avoid travel time, and let people meet without being on camera when that helps them focus.
