Do you feel like your brain is constantly running on overdrive? Maybe you’re navigating the frustrating cycle of procrastination, intense anxiety about falling behind, and the sudden rage or emotional outbursts that follow. You might feel misunderstood, labeled "lazy" or "difficult," when in reality, you are holding it together with incredible effort. If you are tired of the anxiety-depression loop, you are in the right place. I help adolescents and adults move from feeling overwhelmed and reactive to empowered and focused.

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual & in-person • 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.

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 Toms River

Searching for therapists in Toms River starts with finding someone whose experience fits what you want support with. You may be looking for help with anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, life transitions, or stress. As you compare Toms River therapists, look for training and listed specialties that match your needs. Provider bios can also help you understand each therapist’s approach, such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, trauma-informed care, or support for couples and families.

In a smaller city like Toms River, local in-person appointment options may vary by neighborhood, schedule, and specialty. Virtual therapy can expand your choices across New Jersey while keeping care tied to a licensed New Jersey therapist. When narrowing your search, consider whether each therapist is accepting new patients, offers appointment times that work with your calendar, and provides the session format you prefer. Reading profiles before booking can also help you compare communication style, areas of focus, and whether a free phone consultation is available.

Therapy in Toms River can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand your expected out-of-pocket cost before you book. Headway helps you find therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, show current availability, and are accepting new patients. You can browse therapists in Toms River, review bios, check estimated costs, and book directly when you’re ready.

1 Cost may vary based on your location, age, and insurance coverage.
