About Lolitia
Lolitia Medley is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with seven years of clinical experience practicing in Tennessee. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, depression, and compassion fatigue. Her practice also supports those grappling with identity questions, LGBT concerns, and life transitions.
Medley focuses on practical skills and real conversations. She uses evidence-based methods such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy to help people notice unhelpful patterns and try different responses. Sessions often include learning concrete tools for managing strong emotions and improving communication.
Many clients seek her help for issues connected to attachment, abandonment, or codependency. She also addresses struggles with self-esteem, commitment worries, family of origin problems, and feelings of emptiness or isolation. First responder stress and Seasonal Affective Disorder are also among the topics she supports people with.
Her style is straightforward and client-centered. She works with people who want coaching around life purpose, help processing guilt and shame, or ways to cope with major life changes. Narrative therapy and motivational interviewing are tools she uses to help people reframe stuck stories and find motivation to try new steps.
Medley offers sessions in English and practices in Tennessee. People who are exploring gender dysphoria or forgiveness work can bring those themes into therapy. To begin, prospective clients follow the site intake flow to match and schedule an initial appointment.
How sessions work
How ACT, CBT and DBT inform online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that match their values. Online sessions using ACT can focus on small, practical steps to reduce avoidance and increase meaningful activity. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) teaches skills to identify and change thinking patterns that drive anxiety and depression. In remote sessions CBT commonly uses worksheets, behavior experiments, and short between-session tasks to track progress. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers concrete skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and improving communication. When used online DBT skills training and coaching exercises can help during moments of strong emotion and in daily routine changes. Finding the right mix of approaches is a collaborative process. The therapist works with clients to decide which methods fit their goals, symptoms, and preferences. That choice can shift over time as needs change and new tools are tried. The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm available online options before booking. Practical benefits of online care include easier fit with work or family schedules, the option for shorter check-ins when time is limited, and eliminating travel time so sessions can be scheduled more flexibly. Ask about the session types offered when you complete the matching questionnaire so you can pick what will fit your life.Areas of focus
