Lolitia Medley, LPC
About me
As a licensed therapist serving Michigan and Tennessee, I specialize in supporting individuals navigating complex emotional landscapes. My practice centers on empowering clients through challenges like stress, anxiety, trauma, and life transitions. I'm particularly passionate about working with young adults, LGBTQ+ individuals, and those exploring identity, self-love, and personal growth.
My therapeutic approach is deeply compassionate and culturally responsive. I focus on creating a safe, affirming space where clients can explore communication challenges, social anxiety, attachment issues, and personal healing. Drawing from evidence-based practices, I help individuals develop resilience, build self-esteem, and move through experiences of isolation, shame, and personal transformation.
With a commitment to understanding each person's unique journey, I strive to support clients in discovering their inner strength, reclaiming their narrative, and cultivating meaningful connections. My goal is to walk alongside you with genuine empathy and professional guidance as you navigate your path toward healing and self-discovery.

Lolita was a wonderful listener who truly understood my perspective and where I was coming from. She also helped me to better understand others around me and find tangible solutions for my problems. I found my sessions with her effective. I definitely recommend Lolita.

She is very kind but also gives you an alternative perspective.

Lolitia is the best therapist I have ever had. She is an active listener who understands all angles of the situation I'm going through and can provide pinpoint accuracy in analyzing my emotional, physical, and mental needs/wants. Lolitia is able to provide immediate solutions to the adversities I'm working through and has been a warm, grounded, genuine presence that I look forward to being around. I love talking through situations with her from a greater perspective and using deductive reasoning to get down to the root of the issue. One of my favorite parts of working with her though, has been our emphasis on the positive, the wins, and the growth I'm having. She really believes in asserting confidence in her patients and empowerment of the individual and I love that. I couldn't recommend her enough just after a couple sessions!

I have only met with Lolitia once as of this survey. I was so relieved to be matched with an African American Therapist from my culture, because there are cultural concerns that I want to address with a professional who understands firsthand. I deeply appreciate Lolitia’s insightful questions and listening skills. I’m also grateful that she speaks in a down to earth manner and doesn’t make me feel like I’m being pathologized. She also forwarded worksheets for reflection which I have found to be optimally helpful. I am looking forward to our next session. Thanks.
