Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual & in-person • 16 mi away • Union, NJ


My name is Albert Kwimi, Sibaven Medical Associates and Logistics LLC practice has been founded with the goal of bridging the gaps in mental health care, by providing patients and families in need with a patient-focused care approach. As a board-certified psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner, I have a wealth of experience treating all populations adolescents, adults, and geriatric populations. Starting as nurse aide, I have been in this field for over 20 years. I obtained an associate degree in nursing from Hudson County Community College, a Bachelor of Science from New Jersey City University, a Master of Science from Wilkes University, and currently pursuing a Doctorate Degree at Wilkes University. I believe prioritizing mental health is key to happiness and stability in life. Seeking help can be one of the most daunting and hardest parts, so congratulations on taking that step! I am mindful that growing up, so many peoples around me who had mental health challenges were often misunderstood and, as such, did not receive the proper care they needed. So, it is my priority to understand you, and your challenges, so that appropriate care can be provided. I am offering to partner with you on the way to recovery.

I am affiliated with and currently work or have worked in the past with several facilities and agencies in New Jersey, including GenPsych, Alina Lodge, Serenity at Summit, and American Addiction Centers.
