Heat the olive oil in a small pot over medium heat. Add the onion, carrot, and celery. Cook until the vegetables begin to soften, about 5 minutes. Stir in the garlic and cook for 1 minute more.
Add the chicken, beans, broth, thyme, salt, and pepper to the pot. Bring the liquid to a boil, then reduce the heat to low. Simmer until the chicken is cooked through, about 15 minutes. Done when chicken is opaque and firm, 165°F.
Stir in the spinach and lemon juice. Cook just until the spinach has wilted, about 1 minute. Adjust the salt and pepper to taste before serving.
