It's very nice to meet you. I am a psychologist with around twenty years of experience working in schools, hospitals, and community mental health.

Those who seek my support are often grappling with challenging relationships, feeling stuck in unconscious patterns, or navigating the complexities of loss, pain, or shame.

My work is grounded in psychoanalysis, existential therapy, IFS, and liberation psychology.

I also specialize in neurodevelopmental assessment and have expertise in autism testing.

Albert Kwimi

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual & in-person • 12 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.

Many people come to psychiatry after feeling frustrated by treatments that haven't worked or appointments that felt rushed. I became a psychiatric provider because I enjoy helping people understand their symptoms and find treatment approaches that genuinely fit their needs. Before becoming a PMHNP, I received a B.S. in Clinical Psychology from Tufts University and worked in psychiatric research focused on bipolar disorder and treatment-resistant depression. Today, I provide collaborative, individualized care to patients experiencing depression, bipolar disorder, anxiety, ADHD, and more.

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • 12 mi away • Wyckoff, NJ


As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with more than a decade of experience, I have been helping individuals navigate life’s challenges and work toward meaningful personal growth. Over the years, I have had the opportunity to work with children, adolescents, adults, and older adults, supporting clients through a wide range of concerns, including anxiety, depression, OCD, ADHD, stress, grief and loss, and relationship and family difficulties.

My goal is to provide a comfortable, accepting space where clients can feel heard, gain insight, develop healthy coping skills, and move toward a greater sense of confidence and fulfillment. I bring warmth, empathy, authenticity, and definitely some humor to my work. I believe that therapy should feel both supportive and empowering.

Outside of the therapy office, I enjoy spending time with my husband, our two daughters, and my crazy dog Kelly. I love reading, practicing hot yoga, hiking with my family.
