About Luqretia
Luqretia Stuckey is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 19 years of experience helping people navigate stress, anxiety, depression, addiction, trauma, and a wide range of relationship and life challenges.
Background and approach
She approaches care with an emphasis on practical strategies and emotional insight, blending cognitive-behavioral tools with attachment-informed thinking and client-centered support to help clients identify patterns and develop workable options for change. Stuckey draws on nearly two decades of practice across the lifespan, having worked with children, adolescents, adults, and older adults.
Her work attends to both individual concerns like self-esteem, eating challenges, bipolar disorder, ADHD, and self-harm as well as relational and systemic issues including family dynamics, intimacy, infidelity, multicultural concerns, and hospice or end-of-life counseling.
As an LCSW licensed in Indiana and Illinois, she aims to address personal and systemic barriers so clients can better connect with others and their communities. Her style balances practical problem-solving and emotional exploration, using motivational interviewing and narrative techniques alongside psychodynamic perspectives when useful.
The goal is to support durable change by helping people become more honest and genuine with themselves while building skills to manage daily stressors and major life transitions.
How therapy approaches translate to online care
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. It offers concrete strategies for managing symptoms like anxiety, depression, problematic eating patterns, and addictive behaviors by developing new coping skills and testing out alternative ways of thinking in everyday life. Attachment-Based Therapy attends to how early and current relationship patterns shape emotional responses and expectations. It helps clients explore connection, boundaries, and trust to improve intimacy, family dynamics, and the way they relate to others.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist works with each client to clarify goals, assess preferences, and try methods that match the person’s needs, adjusting plans as progress and feedback guide the work. This collaborative stance helps clients feel involved and respected while exploring different tools and perspectives.
Online formats such as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging provide flexibility for fitting therapy into busy lives and for accessing care from different locations within licensed regions. These options can make it easier to attend regular sessions, use brief check-ins between meetings, and practice new skills in real time while staying connected with a licensed professional.
