Bethlyn is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor and co-owner of Believe in Therapy Geneva

Bethlyn has worked in a variety of roles with individuals across the lifespan. She has a special interest and training with disordered eating and eating disorders, as well as body image and complex trauma. Bethlyn is a HAES (Health At Every Size) aligned therapist and works with her clients to help them develop a relationship with food and their bodies that is enjoyable, flexible, and sustainable.

Bethlyn graduated from Benedictine University with her Master’s in Clinical Psychology in 2011. Upon completion of her practicum with Family Counseling Services in Aurora, Bethlyn moved to Raleigh NC where she honed her skills through intensive in-home therapy, residential treatment, and private practice counseling. In 2023, life brought her back to the Chicago area and she currently offers both virtual therapy to NC clients and in-person sessions in Geneva, IL.
