Bethany Chime , LPCC

Bethany Chime is an Ohio-licensed counselor with 10 years of professional experience who focuses on helping people navigate stress, anxiety, relationship challenges, trauma and abuse, and depression. She holds an LPCC (Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor) credential, which reflects specialized training in clinical counseling and therapeutic techniques. Bethany approaches each person with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, working to create a supportive space where concerns can be explored and understood.

She adapts conversation and treatment plans to fit each individual’s needs rather than offering one-size-fits-all solutions, emphasizing collaborative care and practical strategies. Recognizing that beginning therapy often requires courage, Bethany affirms that taking the first step is meaningful and offers steady guidance as clients move forward. Her practice centers on listening carefully, tailoring interventions to specific goals, and helping clients develop skills to manage symptoms and improve relationships over time.

Approach-focused care delivered through online sessions

Bethany uses client-centered therapy to create a collaborative, respectful space where the client's goals and perspectives guide the work. This approach emphasizes empathy and active listening, and it can help with relationship concerns, self-esteem, and adjusting to life changes.

She also draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), which helps identify and shift unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. CBT is often used to address anxiety, depression, stress, and coping skills by teaching practical strategies that can be applied between sessions.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the process and is treated as a collaboration. Bethany works with each person to assess needs, goals, and preferences, and she adjusts methods over time to ensure the approach fits and supports progress.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules, maintain continuity during life transitions, and access care from home or another convenient location while working with licensed professionals and therapists who tailor treatment to individual needs.
