About Luqretia

Luqretia Stuckey is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 19 years of experience. She helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, trauma and relationship or intimacy issues. She also supports those dealing with parenting strain, career changes, ADHD, grief, and concerns related to identity and discrimination.

Her approach is practical and person-centered. She listens first, then helps clients set clear goals. Sessions focus on day-to-day coping, changing unhelpful patterns, and building better connections with others.

Over nearly two decades she has worked across the lifespan, from children to older adults. Her work has included hospice and end-of-life counseling and support for veterans and people affected by sexual assault and addiction. She combines several therapy styles to match each person’s needs.

Clinically she draws on Trauma-Focused Therapy plus Attachment-Based Therapy and Client-Centered methods. She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Motivational Interviewing to help with behavior change and mood management. These approaches are used together to address both immediate symptoms and underlying patterns.

Luqretia aims to reduce barriers that get in the way of daily functioning. She helps people connect with supports in their community and make concrete plans for change. Her style is direct, compassionate, and focused on practical steps clients can try between sessions.

How her approaches can work online

Trauma-Focused Therapy aims to help people process and reduce the impact of past trauma. It focuses on manageable steps so memories and reactions stop interfering with daily life. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships affect current connections. It helps people notice patterns in relationships and build more secure ways of relating.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, symptoms, and preferences. Together they decide which combination of methods feels most useful and adjust the plan as progress is made.

For practical details about online sessions, please confirm the current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to attend from home or during a break, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Therapists can use these sessions to teach coping skills, review progress, and practice new communication patterns so therapy fits into everyday life without requiring extra travel.

These summaries are based on the profile information listed on BetterHelp. Listing trauma-focused therapy does not mean a therapist holds a specific certification such as TF-CBT, EMDR or CPT.
