About
As a person from a rural area, I understand the lack of mental health services available and want to provide high-quality, clinically driven telehealth services to those who are in need.
Kimberly Heitzman is a Licensed Social Worker with 11 years of experience in mental health. She began her professional career working in family preservation and general protective services casework. She worked with emergencies, the court system, behavioral health, drug and alcohol issues, and the justice system. Then, she worked as a behavioral specialist. Anxiety, depression, ODD, self-esteem, anger management, grief, and family therapy are great strengths of hers when providing therapy services. She loves working with teens and young adults and has experience with family systems.
Kimberly graduated from Bloomsburg University. She is able to see clients as human and understands that people cope with things in their own way. She also likes to go back to the basics and discuss emotions, how clients respond to those emotions, and how they affect their overall well-being.
Ever since she was young, Kimberly has been a “helper.” She has also experienced significant trauma and grief in life and utilized therapy services to help process those things. It has allowed her to remain humble and understand that everyone has been dealt a different hand in life, and we all process and manage those things in our own way.

I believe it is important to meet clients where they are and be supportive through growth and change.
I am a Licensed Associate Professional Counselor with 2 years of experience. I have worked in crisis intervention, school-based counseling, and family therapy, supporting adolescents, young adults, and families. I focus on helping clients manage anxiety, depression, panic disorders, adjustment concerns, relationship issues, and family dynamics. I strive to create a safe and supportive space where growth and healing can take place.
I earned my Master’s in Counseling from Cairn University. My approach blends cognitive-behavioral therapy, mindfulness, solution-focused therapy, and aspects of play and art therapy. I use these tools to help clients explore feelings, build healthy coping strategies, and achieve meaningful progress.
I believe every client deserves to be heard and supported in reaching their goals. I provide a warm, safe space for open and honest conversations while guiding clients toward personal growth, resilience, and a higher quality of life. I am dedicated to walking alongside clients as they work toward the changes they want to see.
You deserve dedicated time with a mental health professional — it can be life-changing.

OCD counseling is a specialized therapeutic approach aimed at supporting individuals coping with obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). The goal of this counseling is to help clients manage and alleviate the distressing symptoms of OCD by systematically addressing their obsessive thought patterns and compulsive behaviors.
In OCD counseling, Thriveworks Bensalem therapists use cognitive behavioral techniques, including exposure and response prevention, to assist you in addressing and managing your obsessive thoughts and compulsive behaviors. An OCD therapist will collaborate with you to identify and modify irrational thought patterns while gradually and gently exposing you to anxiety-triggering situations, helping to disrupt the cycle of obsessive-compulsive rituals and promote healthier coping strategies.
Thriveworks OCD counseling in Bensalem, PA is conducted both in person and online by video. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you.
The number of sessions for OCD counseling is variable, contingent upon the individual’s unique needs, the severity of their condition, and their progress during treatment. Typically, Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), commonly used for OCD, comprises around 12 to 16 weekly sessions, but the exact session count can be customized based on the individual’s response to treatment and therapeutic objectives. Some opt for a more extended duration to comprehensively manage symptoms and address complex issues.
