About Lolitia
Lolitia Medley is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with seven years of clinical experience based in Tennessee. She works with adults on stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, depression, and anger, alongside concerns like self-esteem and coping with life changes. She also supports LGBTQ+ concerns and coaching around life purpose and career direction.
Her sessions focus on everyday language and practical steps. She listens for how anger and frustration show up in work, relationships, and at home. She helps people notice patterns, try small behavior changes, and practice new ways of responding when emotions run high.
Lolitia draws from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy to shape sessions. She offers straightforward skill work - such as noticing thoughts, experimenting with values-based choices, and practicing distress-tolerance techniques. She also uses motivational interviewing and narrative therapy to help people clarify goals and rewrite unhelpful stories about themselves.
She pays attention to background issues that often feed anger and low mood, like attachment wounds, abandonment, family of origin concerns, and codependency. Lolitia helps people manage related struggles such as guilt, shame, isolation, and compassion fatigue. First responder issues and Disruptive Mood Dysregulation Disorder are also listed among her focus areas.
Sessions are presented in clear, goal-oriented terms. To begin, a person completes a short matching questionnaire and schedules a first appointment. Fees vary by location and use a subscription that can be canceled at any time.
How therapeutic approaches translate to online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice thoughts and feelings without getting driven by them, then choose actions that match their values. It is useful for dealing with anger that comes from shame, guilt, or life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on the link between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches practical skills to test unhelpful thinking and change reactions. It is often used for anxiety, anger, and low mood. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) emphasizes emotion regulation and distress tolerance skills, which can help when anger feels overwhelming or when people need concrete tools to calm down.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods make sense based on goals, history, and what feels manageable. That may mean combining ACT, CBT, and DBT techniques or drawing on motivational interviewing and narrative work to clarify motivation and personal stories.
Confirm the current session options before booking since formats are not specified in this profile. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. For some people, audio-only meetings use less bandwidth and feel simpler, while video can be helpful for practicing skills in real time. Discussing practical needs and preferences up front lets the therapist structure sessions to fit everyday life.
