About Jeanna
Jeanna Bradley is a licensed mental health counselor who helps people manage stress, anger, anxiety, depression, and major life changes. She brings 12 years of clinical experience and practical focus to sessions. Jeanna works with adults on issues such as trauma, relationship strain, grief, parenting concerns, and workplace stress.
She aims for straightforward, calm conversations where people can name what’s hard. Sessions often involve identifying unhelpful patterns and trying small, realistic changes between meetings.
Background and approach
Jeanna emphasizes building stronger communication skills, increasing self-compassion, and finding steady ways to cope when emotions run high. Her background includes practice in Illinois as a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor. Jeanna has supported people living with chronic illness, caregivers, first responders, and adults navigating later-life challenges and career shifts.
That variety informs a flexible, person-centered style. In therapy she uses techniques from cognitive behavioral approaches, acceptance and commitment ideas, and mindfulness skills. She also draws on dialectical behavior strategies and existential thinking to help people clarify values and take meaningful action.
The focus is practical tools readers can try between sessions. Jeanna favors collaborative work. She helps set goals together and adjusts plans based on what is or isn’t helping.
For someone dealing with anger, anxiety, or transition, she offers steady guidance and down-to-earth strategies aimed at better daily functioning and clearer relationships.

How evidence-based approaches translate to online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice painful thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and then commit to actions that reflect their values; it can be useful for stress, anger, and life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and trying practical behavior changes to reduce symptoms like anxiety and depression. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers concrete emotion regulation and interpersonal skills that help when anger or intense emotions cause problems in daily life.Choosing an approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences, try out methods together, and adjust plans if something does not fit. Treatment is collaborative and paced to what the client needs and can use between sessions.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video lets people practice skills and read nonverbal cues. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or for simpler check-ins. Chat or text-based messaging supports brief updates, skill coaching, or ongoing accountability between longer sessions.
