About Lucetry

Dr. Lucetry Dalton-Trusty is a Michigan Psychologist with 10 years of clinical experience. She offers psychotherapy and works with concerns such as stress, anxiety, relationship and family issues, depression, trauma and abuse, grief, intimacy-related issues, parenting, ADHD, and codependency among others.

She describes sessions as interactive and collaborative. Conversations are direct but conversational, and she sometimes uses a bit of humor. She often suggests short homework tasks that encourage reflection and new ways of thinking about problems.

Her approach draws on evidence-based methods chosen for each person. Sessions focus on what is happening now, how thoughts and actions connect, and small experiments to try between meetings. Clients can expect practical tools alongside time to talk through feelings and decisions.

Dalton-Trusty has worked in multiple states during her education and career, and she brings that varied experience to clients in Michigan. She notes experience with individuals across the lifespan and with people from different cultural backgrounds.

She aims to help people identify options and make choices for themselves rather than decide for them. Sessions are intended to support change through clearer thinking, improved communication, and achievable steps that fit everyday life.

How sessions work

Therapeutic approaches and how online sessions work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then choosing actions that reflect your values. It can help when people feel caught by worry, shame, or patterns like people-pleasing. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and uses small experiments to test new ways of thinking and acting. It is useful for anxiety, depression, and for changing unhelpful habits.

Finding the right fit is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to decide which approach or combination feels most useful based on goals, preferences, and what comes up in sessions. That choice can shift as progress is made and new challenges appear.

Confirm the session formats offered before booking, since the biography does not list specific options. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. They can also let someone join without needing to be on camera if that feels better for now. Practical details about scheduling and the subscription billing are provided when choosing online therapy options.
