About Jeanna

Jeanna Bradley is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in Indiana and a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) in Illinois with 12 years of experience. She supports adults who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, relationship strains, parenting concerns, grief, and the longer-term effects of family of origin issues. Her work also includes ADHD, career concerns, and challenges tied to chronic health or caregiving roles.

Jeanna uses practical conversations to help people notice the patterns that keep repeating at home and at work. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to identify unhelpful thoughts and to practice clearer decision making. She also uses Client-Centered techniques and elements of Dialectical Behavior Therapy to focus on communication and emotional regulation.

In sessions Jeanna prioritizes concrete skills and small experiments people can try between meetings. She helps people improve how they talk with others, set boundaries, and reduce overwhelm. She pays attention to how early family roles or expectations still influence daily choices and relationships.

Her background includes working with adults across varied life stages and with health-related challenges. That experience informs practical strategies for coping with role strain, caregiver stress, and the fallout from difficult life changes. She frames goals in ways that fit ordinary routines.

People who want a straightforward, skills-focused approach often find this style useful. To begin, she asks about current patterns, what people want to change, and what small steps feel doable now.

How her approaches shape online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing unhelpful thoughts and choosing actions that match a person's values. It can help with anxiety, depression, and patterns that stem from family expectations. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thinking patterns and behavior links, offering step-by-step exercises to test and change unhelpful beliefs and routines.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Jeanna collaborates with each person to try techniques and see what fits. She adjusts methods based on the client's goals, needs, and how they respond in early sessions.

Session formats are not listed in the provided biography, so confirm the current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into busy days, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. Therapists often use video for deeper conversation and phone for quick updates or when lower bandwidth is required. Ask about the specific formats offered when you schedule so sessions match your daily routine.
