Mom Says Rehab Has Changed Lindsay Lohan

Lohan and her father are reportedly working on their troubled relationship.

LOS ANGELES ( KTLA) -- Lindsay Lohan's addiction treatment at the Betty Ford Clinic has been "life changing," according to her mother.

Dina Lohan says the Rancho Mirage clinic is "an amazing place" that has really brought the 24-year-old actress' problems to the surface.

The troubled actress was spotted shopping on Sunday during an approved outing. According to TMZ, Lindsay reunited with her father, Michael Lohan, during the outing and the two spent several hours at a high-end jewelry store.

The two are reportedly trying to repair their relationship.

Lohan's mother says her daughter is a different person.

Superior Court Judge Elden S. Fox sent Lohan back to rehab last month after she failed a drug test in connection with a DUI-related arrest three years ago.

Fox called her an "addict" and ordered her to stay there until Jan. 3.

"You're staying past the New Year's - there's a reason for that," he told her.

This is reportedly the fifth rehab stint for the "Mean Girls" star.

In August, she spent 23 days in a court-ordered rehab program at Ronald Reagan UCLA Medical Center following 14 days in a Los Angeles County jail.
