About Jeanna

Jeanna Bradley is a licensed mental health counselor who helps people handle stress, anxiety, depression, grief, and the effects of trauma. She also supports those coping with relationship and intimacy concerns, career shifts, parenting strain, ADHD, and compassion fatigue. Jeanna practices in Illinois and brings 12 years of clinical experience to her work.

She meets each person where they are and focuses on practical steps that fit daily life. Sessions tend to be straightforward and goal-focused. Jeanna uses talk, reflection, and simple tools to manage difficult feelings and improve day-to-day functioning.

Her approach draws on several therapy styles. She borrows ideas from cognitive behavioral therapy to notice unhelpful thinking patterns. Acceptance and commitment work helps people clarify values and take actions that matter to them. Client-centered principles guide the way she listens and responds to each person’s unique story.

Jeanna often helps clients build stronger communication skills, manage anger, and set boundaries after family of origin wounds or relationship breaks. She also supports people dealing with chronic illness, caregiving stress, and life stage transitions like aging or career change.

Sessions are offered in English and are available through video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. Her credentials include Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC, and Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor, LCPC. The first step is a short matching questionnaire and scheduling to find a time that works.

Therapeutic approaches and online care

Jeanna commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people name their values and take small steps toward them, even when hard feelings are present. That approach is useful for anxiety, depression, and major life changes.

She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, which can reduce symptoms of anxiety and improve mood. Client-centered work guides how she listens, offering a respectful space where the person sets the pace and priorities.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Jeanna will work with each client to decide which methods fit their goals, preferences, and daily life. Together they track what helps and adjust the plan as needed.

Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when bandwidth permits. Phone sessions can be a good option when a camera is not desired or bandwidth is limited. Chat and messaging work well for brief check-ins, regular skills practice, or when a written format feels easier to use.
