Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual & in-person • 6.1 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.

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • 6.1 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.

Happy patient looking away

Find an expert who truly understands ADHD

Headway helps you stay on track with expert-guided support for ADHD — from finding the right therapist or psychiatrist, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an ADHD Therapist in Newark, NJ

Finding ADHD therapists in Newark starts with knowing what kind of support you want. Therapy can help with executive function skills, cognitive behavioral therapy for ADHD, emotional regulation strategies, and support for concerns like focus, organization, distractibility, and impulsivity. Medication management is separate and may involve a psychiatrist or other qualified prescriber. Some people look for therapy, some look for medication support, and some use both. If you’re searching for adult ADHD counseling near me, ADHD counseling near me, or care for a child or teen, look for a therapist whose listed specialties and experience match your needs.

Newark offers a range of mental health care options, and the right match may depend on schedule, location, and care format. You may prefer an office near downtown Newark, the Ironbound, University Heights, or another nearby area, or you may find that virtual appointments give you more options across New Jersey. ADHD can also appear alongside anxiety, depression, work stress, school concerns, or relationship challenges, so it helps to choose a therapist with experience in ADHD and related concerns. Before booking, read therapist bios for details about approach, appointment availability, session structure, and whether a free phone consultation is offered.

Therapy in Newark can be a significant investment without insurance, and using in-network coverage is one of the most reliable ways to lower session costs. Headway helps you find ADHD therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, are accepting new patients, and offer upfront cost estimates after you enter your insurance details. You can compare therapists, review bios, check availability, and book directly when you’re ready.

If you're already taking psychiatric medication and considering switching providers, talk to your current prescriber before changing or stopping any medication — most psychiatric medications shouldn't be stopped abruptly. Anyone experiencing thoughts of self-harm or in acute crisis should call 988 or go to the nearest emergency department rather than wait for an outpatient appointment.
