Therapist

Virtual & in-person • 3.2 mi away • Nutley, NJ


People come to therapy for many reasons. Some are struggling with anxiety, OCD, stress, or feeling emotionally overwhelmed. Others are navigating life transitions such as starting college, entering adulthood, changing careers, becoming a parent, caring for aging parents, or moving through perimenopause and menopause. Sometimes there isn’t a single crisis. Instead, there is a growing sense that life feels harder than it should, or that old ways of coping are no longer working.

I work with teens, young adults, and adults who are trying to manage the demands of everyday life while carrying a great deal beneath the surface. Many are bright, capable, and caring people who find themselves overthinking, emotionally exhausted, distracted, stuck in patterns of worry, or struggling to make space for their own needs. Together, we work to better understand what is keeping them stuck, develop practical tools, and create meaningful changes that support a more balanced and fulfilling life.

Albert Kwimi

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual & in-person • 8.7 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.

Happy patient looking away

Find the right therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Montclair

Finding the right therapist in Montclair starts with getting clear on what you're looking for. Consider whether you need support for a specific concern — such as anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, or trauma — or whether you're looking for general talk therapy. Knowing whether you prefer in-person sessions in the Montclair area or virtual appointments can also help narrow your search. Look for a licensed provider (such as an LCSW, LPC, LMFT, or psychologist) whose specialty and approach match your needs, and read their bio to get a sense of their style before booking.

Montclair is home to a range of mental health providers, from therapists offering Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) to psychiatrists who can prescribe and manage medication. Couples counseling, family therapy, and support for children and teens are also available from providers in and around Essex County. Whether you're near Upper Montclair, the Bay Street area, or surrounding neighborhoods like Glen Ridge and Bloomfield, both in-person and virtual options can make it easier to fit therapy into your schedule.

Therapy in Montclair can be expensive without insurance, but using your in-network benefits is one of the most reliable ways to reduce what you pay per session. On Headway, you can enter your insurance details to see estimated session costs upfront, and many patients pay as low as $0 per visit. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, making it easier to find a provider who fits your needs and is covered by your plan.
