About Lucetry

Dr. Lucetry Dalton-Trusty is a Michigan-based licensed psychologist (MI Psychologist 6301018016) who focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and family concerns, trauma, grief, and a wide range of life transitions.

Background and approach

She brings ten years of clinical experience to her work and combines evidence-informed methods to match each person’s unique needs. Sessions are interactive and collaborative, and she often offers brief, purposeful homework to encourage reflection, cognitive reframing, and fresh perspectives.

Her style balances professionalism with warmth and a sense of humor when appropriate, aiming to create an atmosphere where clients can speak honestly and explore difficult feelings. Dr.

Dalton-Trusty emphasizes an individualized plan rather than a one-size-fits-all protocol, adapting her approach to personality, interests, and clinical goals. She provides care via virtual formats and draws on a broad background of practice across multiple states to inform culturally aware, person-centered interventions.

Evidence-Informed Approaches and Online Care

Dr. Dalton-Trusty draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients identify unhelpful thought patterns and develop practical strategies for managing anxiety, depression, and stress. She also incorporates Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), which encourages acceptance of difficult emotions and clarifies personal values to guide behavior change. Client-centered principles shape her work as well, creating an empathic, respectful space where the client’s perspective guides therapeutic goals.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist works with each person to explore which methods align with their concerns, goals, and preferences and may blend techniques from different models to meet evolving needs over time.

Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, making it easier to fit sessions into a busy life and to continue care from different locations within Michigan. These formats support ongoing collaboration, brief between-session exercises, and timely check-ins that complement the therapist’s interactive, homework-oriented style.
