About Lucetry
Dr. Lucetry Dalton-Trusty helps parents and individuals facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain, grief, trauma, parenting challenges, and life transitions. She is Dr.
Lucetry B. Dalton and she practices as an MI Psychologist with ten years of clinical experience. Her tone is straightforward and down-to-earth, aimed at people who need clear direction and practical steps.
She uses an integrative approach that blends several evidence-informed methods to match each person's needs. Sessions are interactive and collaborative.
Background and approach
Homework is often suggested - short, doable exercises that encourage reflection and new ways of thinking. Her style is warm and direct, with a bit of humor when it fits. She aims to create a trusting space where people can speak honestly and explore difficult feelings.
The focus is on learning skills, testing new behaviors, and seeing what works in real life. Dr. Dalton-Trusty has worked in multiple states and with people from many backgrounds.
That breadth of experience informs how she adapts treatment to personality, culture, and stage of life. She notes that no two people are treated the same; each plan is personalized. In practical terms, she offers psychotherapy remotely and structures sessions so clients can integrate change between meetings.
The goal is not to remove feelings but to help people understand them, expand options, and take manageable steps toward their goals.

Approaches that guide remote sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on helping people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and then take committed action toward what matters. It can help with anxiety, parenting stress, and making life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches concrete skills to change unhelpful patterns; it is often used for anxiety, depression, and anger. Emotionally-Focused Therapy, EFT, centers on understanding emotional responses in close relationships and can help improve communication and intimacy.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped in the past. Together they will adjust methods over time so sessions stay practical and relevant to the client's life.
Online therapy offers flexibility for busy schedules and different needs. Video calls allow face-to-face work and deeper interactive exercises. Phone sessions or voice calls can fit short breaks or lower bandwidth situations. Live chat and text-based messaging are useful for quick check-ins, coaching-style support, and ongoing reflection between sessions. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent while juggling parenting, work, and other commitments.
