About Jeanna
Jeanna Bradley, LMHC, LCPC, helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, and phobias. She focuses on practical steps that make everyday life feel more manageable. Her tone is direct and calm to help parents and individuals feel heard quickly.

Jeanna keeps language plain and uses real-life examples so ideas are easy to try between sessions.
Background and approach
Over 12 years she has worked with people dealing with career strain, grief, caregiver stress, chronic illness, and the fallout from past abuse. She also helps those wrestling with relationship problems, intimacy concerns, and issues tied to neurodiversity such as autism and ADHD. Her experience includes supporting people through major life changes and chronic health challenges.
Her approach draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, and existential ideas. That mix lets her tailor sessions to what a person needs in the moment - from emotion regulation skills to values-based action plans. She explains each method plainly before using it.
Jeanna practices in Illinois and works in English. She aims to create a steady, practical space where people can try new coping strategies, repair communication, and move toward goals at a pace that fits their life.
How tailored approaches work online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters most to them and take small steps toward those values, even when worry or fear gets in the way. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on noticing unhelpful thoughts and testing them with real-life experiments to reduce anxiety and avoidant behavior. Client-Centered Therapy centers the person's own goals and pace, with the therapist providing attentive listening and practical feedback.The therapist treats finding the right approach as a team effort. She will talk with clients about goals, try methods that fit their situation, and adjust plans based on what helps most. That collaborative process makes it simpler to pick skills and exercises that suit a person's life.
Online sessions use video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make work on these approaches flexible. Video lets people practice communication and role-play skills while seeing body language. Phone sessions can be a shorter check-in when bandwidth is low. Live chat and texting work well for ongoing coaching, brief skill reminders, and tracking progress between meetings. These options help fit therapy into busy schedules and varied needs.
