Hi there, I'm Ibrahim!
I have over 5 years of experience as a mental health practitioner, working in outpatient clinics and inpatient psychiatric units. My primary focus has been on providing medication management and talk therapy to individuals with severe mental health issues, including depression, bipolar disorder, anxiety, etc, starting age of 12 years to late adulthood. I am passionate about creating a safe, supportive environment to help each client achieve their goals and improve their quality of life. Please be advised that this online telehealth service does not initiate or prescribe controlled medications, such as benzodiazepines or stimulants, due to DEA regulations.
I am a board -certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) with a passion for helping individuals achieve mental wellness through personalized, evidence-based care. I earned my Masters of Science in Nursing with a specialization in psychiatry and have several years of experience working with diverse populations in both in person and tele-psychiatry settings. My clinical focus includes mood disorders, anxiety, ADHD, trauma-related conditions and life traditions. I strive to create a safe, nonjudgmental space where clients feel seen, heard and empowered.
I recognize that reaching out for mental health care can be difficult, and I honor the bravery it takes to make that initial step. Whether you are navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, or another challenge, I am here to walk alongside you with compassion, honesty, and respect for your personal journey.
Hi, I’m a Board Certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner. I graduated from Drexel University with my Master's degree in Nursing. I then completed my Post-Graduate Certificate in Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner. I have over twenty years of experience working in healthcare. Psych has always been my passion. My experiences encompass working with clients across the life span, including Child and Adolescents, Adult, and Geriatric patient populations. I’ve provided services to clients presenting with many psychiatric disorders, such as Anxiety, Depression, ADHD, Bipolar Disorder, and more. I’m in the belief that mental health wellbeing is a priority. Human beings are resilient. Holistic care is the key to promoting better patient outcomes. Therefore, I believe that with an evidence-based practice treatment plan consisting of psychotherapy and/or a combination of psychotherapy and medication management, one will be able to control their mental health.
I’m a very compassionate, caring, and empathetic person. I strive to provide holistic care and collaborate with my clients to develop a treatment plan that they are comfortable with.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Psychiatrist in Fair Lawn, NJ
Finding psychiatrists in Fair Lawn starts with knowing what kind of mental health care you need. Psychiatrists and psychiatric mental health nurse practitioners can diagnose mental health conditions and prescribe medication, while therapists focus on talk therapy and coping support. Medication management may be part of care for concerns like anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, or OCD. Some people start with a psychiatrist, some start with a therapist, and some work with both, depending on their needs.
In a smaller Bergen County community like Fair Lawn, local psychiatry appointment options may be more limited than in larger cities. Virtual appointments can expand your choices while still letting you search for someone licensed in New Jersey. As you compare psychiatrists, look at appointment availability, whether they are accepting new patients, and whether they offer the type of visit you prefer. Reading bios can also help you understand each psychiatrist’s focus, communication style, and whether they provide therapy in addition to medication management. Psychiatric medication management visits are often shorter and less frequent than therapy sessions, so it helps to review what each psychiatrist offers before booking.
Psychiatric care in Fair Lawn can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce out-of-pocket costs and see your estimated session price before you book. Headway helps you search psychiatrists and other prescribing clinicians who are accepting new patients, enter your insurance details, review bios, 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.
