About Bethany

Bethany Chime is a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) practicing in Ohio with 10 years of experience. She focuses on practical, person-focused support for people dealing with stress, anxiety, trauma, depression, and relationship strain. Bethany aims to meet each person where they are and help them take the next steps forward.

She approaches sessions with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. Conversations are shaped around the client's goals and day-to-day needs. Bethany adapts the pace and focus so the work feels manageable rather than overwhelming.

Her background includes work with trauma-related concerns and mood disorders. She also helps people facing caregiver stress, adoption or foster care challenges, blended family issues, and the aftermath of sexual assault or other abuse. She draws on multiple approaches to match the problem at hand.

Bethany uses client-centered methods to build a trusting relationship and cognitive behavioral techniques to address unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. She also includes trauma-focused tools when past events are getting in the way of present life. This mix is used to create concrete steps the client can try between sessions.

People using the Supporting carers directory may find her experience relevant for caregiver stress and related family strains. To get started, clients choose the Start Therapy button, fill a short matching questionnaire, and schedule according to therapist availability.

How therapeutic approaches guide online care

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the relationship first. The therapist listens without judgment and helps the client set the agenda. This approach is useful when someone needs a safe space to sort out feelings and make decisions.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts and behaviors affect mood. Sessions often include clear techniques to test unhelpful thoughts and small experiments to change behavior. CBT can help with anxiety, depression, ADHD-related patterns, and coping with life changes.

Finding the right method is part of the work together. The therapist and client will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful. That shared decision helps tailor the mix of approaches over time.

If you are considering online therapy, confirm the exact session options before booking, as formats are not specified here. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, shorten travel time, and allow for check-ins that match your schedule. It can also let people use quieter surroundings, avoid being on camera when desired, or choose a shorter session for a focused check-in. Licensed professionals can adapt techniques like CBT and client-centered conversation to an online setting so the work continues even when meeting remotely.
