Albert Kwimi

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual & in-person • 13 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.

Great to Meet You

Seeking therapy can feel overwhelming, and you don't have to navigate it alone. My goal is to create a space where you feel safe, heard, supported, and empowered to grow.

I work with individuals and couples navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, chronic illness, relationship challenges, life transitions, stress, self-esteem concerns, and LGBTQIA+ experiences. I also support clients who are coping with family conflict, workplace stress, attachment concerns, and emotional overwhelm.

My approach is warm, collaborative, and grounded in compassion, honesty, and accountability. Together, we'll identify patterns that may be keeping you stuck, build practical coping skills, strengthen healthy boundaries, and work toward meaningful, lasting change.

Whether you're navigating a major life transition, living with chronic illness, healing from past experiences, or looking to strengthen your relationships, you don't have to do it alone. My goal is to help you leave each session feeling more grounded, confident, and connected to the life you want to create. =)

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with over 10 years of experience helping adults and adolescents manage ADHD, anxiety, depression, OCD, stress, life transitions, and substance-related concerns.

My approach is practical, collaborative, and goal-focused. I use evidence-based strategies, including CBT and exposure-based work, to help clients better understand their patterns, build coping skills, and make meaningful changes in daily life.

I believe therapy does not have to be reserved only for moments of crisis. It can be helpful for anyone who wants to manage stress more effectively, improve relationships, strengthen emotional control, or feel more confident in how they handle life’s demands.
