About Bethany
Bethany Chime is an Ohio Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) with 10 years of clinical experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, relationship issues, trauma and abuse, and depression. She also addresses concerns such as ADHD, addictions, grief, parenting strains, and problems with intimacy and self-esteem.
Bethany uses straightforward talk therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and habits. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify patterns that keep problems going and to try new ways of responding. She also uses client-centered methods to keep sessions focused on each person’s priorities.
For people impacted by past trauma, she incorporates trauma-focused work and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing when appropriate. That work aims to reduce strong reactions tied to difficult memories and to help people feel more in control of daily life.
Sessions are practical and goal-oriented. Bethany helps people break larger problems into steps they can practice between meetings. She pays attention to communication problems, caregiver stress, adoption and foster care issues, and the particular pressures first responders may face.
Her approach is collaborative and concrete. People are encouraged to try techniques, review how they worked, and adjust the plan. To start, clients follow the site process to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.
How Bethany uses CBT, client-centered, and trauma approaches online
Bethany works from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people identify thought patterns and behavioral habits that keep problems active. CBT involves noticing automatic thoughts, testing whether they match reality, and practicing different responses to reduce anxiety, low mood, or unhelpful reactions.She also uses client-centered methods that keep the focus on what the person wants to address. That approach emphasizes listening and shaping sessions around the issues and goals the client brings. For people with a history of trauma, she may incorporate trauma-focused techniques and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing to lessen intense reactions tied to memories.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Bethany will collaborate with each person to select which methods to try, review how they feel in practice, and change course if needed. The choice is based on symptoms, goals, and what the person prefers.
