Dr. Lucetry Dalton-Trusty, MI Psychologist 6301018016

Dr. Lucetry Dalton-Trusty is a Michigan-based psychologist who helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and family concerns, grief, trauma, and aging and geriatric issues. She brings ten years of clinical experience and works with people who face parenting challenges, intimacy and communication problems, ADHD, bipolar mood concerns, and career or self-esteem struggles.

Her sessions are interactive and collaborative. She uses a mix of approaches tailored to each person’s needs and personality. Sessions often include brief take-home exercises to encourage reflection, new perspectives, and practical behavior changes.

Dr. Dalton-Trusty describes her style as engaging, warm, and at times gently humorous. She aims to create a respectful, nonjudgmental space where people can speak openly and think through difficult choices. She emphasizes learning from each other during the work.

With experience across several U.S. states, she has worked with people across the lifespan and from varied cultural backgrounds. That background informs how she adapts her methods to match different life stages and concerns.

Her practice focuses on tailoring therapy to individual goals. She helps people identify options, practice new skills, and build strategies for coping with life changes, caregiver stress, addiction recovery issues, and relationship strain.

How certain approaches translate to online therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that match their values. It is useful for stress, anxiety, life transitions, and coping with long-term challenges. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing thoughts and behaviors that cause distress, and it often includes practical exercises and skill practice between sessions.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what has or has not helped before. Together they will decide which methods to try and adjust the plan as progress is made.

Confirm the available online session options before booking, as specific formats are not listed here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Many people find virtual work lets them practice new skills in everyday routines while keeping the focus on their goals and values.
