Jeanna Bradley

Jeanna Bradley, LMHC, LCPC, helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, and workplace strain. She also supports those dealing with grief, relationship and intimacy concerns, parenting stress, ADHD, and the challenges that come with life changes. Her style is steady and practical so conversations focus on what matters now.

She draws on 12 years of clinical experience in Illinois and works with adults who are managing long-term health issues, aging concerns, and career transitions. Sessions emphasize clearer communication, reducing shame, and building self-compassion rather than quick fixes.

Jeanna blends several approaches to match a person’s needs. She uses acceptance and commitment ideas to help people settle on their values, cognitive behavioral tools for shifting unhelpful thinking, and client-centered techniques to keep the room collaborative and respectful. She also pulls from dialectical behavior therapy skills when emotional regulation is a primary concern.

In practical terms she helps people set small, realistic goals and practices that fit daily life. Therapy can include skill-building, focused problem solving, and space to process grief or past hurt. The aim is clearer choices and steadier coping.

Her background includes supporting older adults, veterans, young professionals, and people living with chronic illness. She frames progress as gradual and individualized, and she works with each person to find approaches that feel useful and manageable.

How her approaches work in online therapy

Jeanna commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to guide sessions. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people get clear on what matters to them and take small actions toward those values even when emotions are uncomfortable. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying and testing unhelpful thoughts, then practicing new behaviors that lead to better daily functioning.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. She will talk with each person about their goals, habits, and preferences, and then suggest methods to try. That plan can change over time based on what proves helpful in real life.

If you are considering online work, confirm the session formats before booking since they are not listed here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time for those with health or mobility concerns. Licensed professionals can use a mix of focused skill practice and conversational work that translates to everyday routines, helping clients try tools between sessions and report back on what worked.
