Lindsay Lohan's father has won the battle to get his daughter into counseling - the actress is reportedly meeting with a mentor up to three times a week.

Michael Lohan leaked taped recordings of phone calls he'd had with his daughter in a last-ditch bid to get her to enter rehab and kick an alleged addiction to prescription drugs. The plan backfired when Lohan and his ex-wife Dina staged a public campaign to vilify the worried dad for his actions. He has since promised not to leak anymore recordings.

However, it seems his efforts have driven Lindsay to a counselor.

A source tells Life & Style magazine, "She goes two, sometimes three times a week. This is not a program or substance-abuse counselor or police officer watching over her; it's someone to talk to in a confidential state."

"She knows, and everyone knows, this is a huge stepping-stone for her - get in there, talk to someone, figure out what's going on and then try to fix it. First comes the diagnosis."
