About Jenna

Dr. Jenna Lebersfeld is a licensed clinical psychologist practicing in Illinois who focuses on concerns such as ADHD, anxiety, depression, stress, sleeping problems, parenting difficulties, anger, self-esteem, and family issues.

Background and approach

She also attends to a wide range of related areas including adoption and foster care, autism and Asperger syndrome, caregiver stress, communication and family problems, gender dysphoria, impulsivity, obsessive-compulsive symptoms, phobias, sexuality and relationship diversity, social anxiety, and effects of traumatic brain injury. Her style emphasizes warmth, understanding, and collaboration.

She approaches therapy as a partnership in which clients’ lived experience guides the work while she applies psychological training to develop practical strategies. Over eight years of clinical practice have informed her use of evidence-based techniques to address emotional regulation, behavioral challenges, and interpersonal patterns.

Dr. Lebersfeld holds the Illinois psychologist license IL Psychologist 071.010820 and offers care in English.

She provides sessions through multiple online formats, and prospective clients can begin by completing a short matching questionnaire and scheduling according to her availability. Her practice also includes coaching-oriented work alongside traditional therapeutic support.

Evidence-Based Techniques and Online Access

Dr. Lebersfeld commonly uses cognitive behavioral strategies to help clients identify unhelpful thinking patterns and develop concrete skills for managing anxiety, depression, impulsivity, and ADHD-related challenges. This approach focuses on practical tools and behavior change to reduce symptoms and improve daily functioning.

She also integrates acceptance and commitment ideas, which emphasize values-based action and learning to relate differently to difficult thoughts and feelings. That kind of work can support people working through stress, relationship problems, and issues around identity or caregiving. Mindfulness practices are woven into sessions to build attention, emotional regulation, and present-moment awareness when useful for the client's goals.

Finding the right mix of techniques is part of the collaborative process. The therapist partners with each client to assess needs, experiment with approaches, and adapt methods over time so the plan aligns with personal goals and preferences.

Online therapy through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text messaging offers flexibility for scheduling and allows people to engage from different settings. These options can make it easier to maintain continuity of care, fit sessions into busy lives, and access support when in-person attendance would be difficult.
