 Lindsay Lohan successfully completed her 90-day rehab stint and can go more than a year without another court hearing if she keeps her nose clean, a Los Angeles judge said Wednesday. 
 
 Lohan, 27, checked out of Cliffside Malibu Tuesday and immediately met with a sober coach ahead of some work commitments, her lawyer Shawn Holley said outside court. 
 
 "It was absolutely her idea to stay with the sober coach," Holley told the Daily News. "She's so positive, so focused, so interested in getting her life on the right track, in a way that I have not seen before this point."

 A paparazzi photo of the former Hollywood hellion leaving Cliffside showed her wearing a blue sundress, long flowing locks, kneehigh socks and a big smile. 
 
 During the morning court hearing, Judge James Dabney said he reviewed Cliffside's report and agreed with their assessment the "Mean Girls" actress should engage in three 50-minute psychotherapy sessions each week to finish up the 18 months of psychological counseling included in her plea deal. 
 
 He said Lohan could do the sessions either in person or over Skype if she returns to New York as planned.

 He also agreed to let the scandal-prone starlet complete her 30 days of community labor in New York. 
 
 "The court would go along with that as long as it's verifiable and (we) get something on letterhead," Dabney said. 
 
 "We'll make sure of that," Holley replied.

 After her E! taping, she's heading back to New York for a belated birthday party and then off to Europe for a stop in Greece and an appearance to support "The Canyons" at the Venice Film Festival, her mom Dina Lohan told The News. 
 
 "It's all good. We're very happy," Dina said Monday. "Oh my God, I can't wait to hug her."

 Lindsay was sentenced to 90 days in lockdown rehab in March when she pleaded no contest to reckless driving and lying to police about a crash on a Santa Monica highway in June 2012. 
 
 The sentence meant LiLo had to miss the world premiere of "The Canyons" at Lincoln Center Monday night. 
 
 Directed by Paul Schrader from a Bret Easton Ellis script, "The Canyons" has received some scathing reviews, but a Variety film critic compared Lindsay's performance to the work of Marlon Brando in "Last Tango in Paris." 
 
 "Wow…humbled and feeling so much gratitude," Lindsay wrote on Twitter, linking to the Variety review.

– Regardless of your feelings about Lindsay Lohan, you have to admit it can't be fun to exit rehab and immediately have members of your "recovery group" start talking to the media. Tommy Tracy dished to Fox 5 in a recent interview obtained by the Huffington Post, but at least he only had nice things to say. He befriended Lohan (the station had a picture of them together, and Lohan tweeted out this happy birthday message to Tracy's son), and says she engaged in a lot of "soul searching" and "contemplating what's really important in life" while in rehab. She definitely wants "to gain independence for herself," Tracy continued. "The party's over and it's time to get serious about what she's doing in her career." After leaving rehab Tuesday, Lohan headed to a sober coach in LA, with whom she'll stay for a few days, TMZ reports. The rehab facility recommended Lohan get therapy in order to avoid "almost certain failure," and the judge in her case agreed yesterday, ordering her to complete three 50-minute therapy sessions per week for the next 15 months, TMZ adds. She also has 30 days of community service to complete, which she can do from New York, the Daily News reports. In terms of her career, E! reports that she's set to host Chelsea Lately, sit down with Oprah, and promote new movie The Canyons.
