Adele Veksman, MD

Dr. Adele Veksman, MD

Staff Psychiatrist

I am double board-certified in adult psychiatry and psychosomatic medicine, with over 14 years of experience diagnosing and treating a wide range of psychiatric conditions. I approach each patient as a unique individual, offering a non-judgmental space to help patients develop into their best selves. I focus primarily on medication management to alleviate symptoms while working with patients on behavioral changes to address underlying issues. If additional therapy is needed, I may suggest adding a therapist to your care team to provide the best outcome.

I received my medical degree from St. George's University and then completed a residency in psychiatry and fellowship in psychosomatic medicine at Zucker Hillside Hospital at Northwell Health. I then served as an attending and ER psychiatrist at North Shore University Hospital, providing psychiatric care to medically ill patients, before transitioning to adult outpatient care at Maimonides Medical Center, where I treated various psychiatric illnesses. Throughout my career, I have taught and supervised residents and medical students.

Alessandra Buonopane, MD

Dr. Alessandra Buonopane, MD

Staff Psychiatrist

I practice a holistic approach, combining psychiatric medications with elements of psychotherapy and mindfulness. I offer individualized and comprehensive treatment plans that address the whole person, including lifestyle and social engagement, because the latest research findings show that both play an important role in mental and physical health. Education on mental illness and recommendations on diet and exercise are always discussed with my patients according to each individual's needs. I spend time listening to patients and make plans based on clinical evidence without an authoritative approach, taking into consideration the patient's level of comfort and views because, in my experience, the best outcomes are always reached when patients fully understand and agree with the management of their conditions. I have extensive experience in psychopharmacology and offer state-of-the-art medication management with compassion and empathy, with a focus on mood disorders and anxiety.

I am Board Certified in Adult Psychiatry by the American Board of Psychiatry and Neurology. I obtained my medical degree with Laude from the University of Rome, La Sapienza, and completed my residency in Psychiatry at Yale School of Medicine. I have been in practice for more than twenty years and have extensive experience in general Adult Psychiatry. I have led clinical programs and taught medical students, residents, and fellows in psychiatry and addiction in various clinical settings, including private institutions and universities such as Yale School of Medicine. Prior to joining Talkiatry, I had my own in-person clinical services for over ten years and telehealth services over the past four years, treating patients suffering mainly from depression, bipolar disorder, and anxiety. During my time in private practice, I received the Compassionate Doctor Recognition (Vitals) and the Patient's Choice Awards (Vitals), both based on patients' reviews.

Alexander Wittenberg, DO

Dr. Alexander Wittenberg, DO

Staff Psychiatrist

I offer highly individualized and empathic treatment, primarily focusing on medication management. I frequently recommend integrating therapy into treatment plans and may suggest collaborating with a therapist. I prioritize a holistic approach, emphasizing overall well-being alongside symptom relief, and I encourage the incorporation of mindfulness, self-compassion, exercise, nutrition, and attention to interpersonal relationships into my treatment strategy. I have expertise in treating a wide range of mental health conditions, including depressive disorders, anxiety disorders, bipolar disorder, trauma and stressor-related disorders, and OCD.

During an initial visit, patients can anticipate a collaborative, patient-centered, and non-judgmental environment designed to foster a meaningful therapeutic relationship. I will thoroughly discuss individual concerns and treatment goals, exploring potential therapeutic interventions, including medication management and holistic strategies to support mental health and overall wellness.

I am a board-certified adult psychiatrist. I received my undergraduate degree from Cornell University, majoring in Human Biology, Health, and Society, and earned my medical degree from the New York Institute of Technology College of Osteopathic Medicine, where I was a member of the Psi Sigma Alpha Osteopathic Honor Society. As chief resident at Mount Sinai Beth Israel, I gained extensive experience working in outpatient settings and managing patient care at one of New York City's busiest clinics.

Alexandra Dunn, MD

Dr. Alexandra Dunn, MD

Staff Psychiatrist

I'm a board-certified adult psychiatrist. I completed my medical training at the University of California Irvine School of Medicine, then moved to New York for my psychiatric residency at Mount Sinai Beth Israel. During training, I gained extensive clinical experience across psychiatric inpatient, outpatient, and emergency settings, which gave me the opportunity to treat patients of all ages and backgrounds. I also co-led a mindfulness group at the outpatient clinic, worked with students at Baruch College, and rotated with the Assertive Community Treatment team at MSBI.

Ultimately, I chose to specialize in outpatient care, focusing on treating patients with mood and anxiety disorders. While my practice primarily emphasizes medication management, I also incorporate supportive and cognitive behavioral therapy techniques in my sessions. If appropriate, I'll refer you for psychotherapy and collaborate with your therapist to support your care. I look forward to meeting and working with you to help you feel better.

Find a psychiatrist in New Jersey

The psychiatrists on this page are licensed in New Jersey and see patients across the state by video. You meet from home, on your own schedule, with no commute and no local waitlist. Many people are matched and scheduled in days, not months.

How online psychiatry works in New Jersey

You start with a free online assessment. Then you're matched with a psychiatrist licensed in New Jersey and meet by video from home. First visits are 60 minutes, and follow-ups are usually around 30 minutes.

State licensure is the reason these pages are organized by state. Your psychiatrist must be licensed in New Jersey when you're physically in New Jersey during your visit. That's what makes online care possible without traveling to an office.

What a psychiatrist in New Jersey can help with

Does insurance cover a psychiatrist in New Jersey?

Talkiatry is in-network with major insurers. Your coverage is checked during the free assessment, so you don't have to look it up yourself first.

Costs vary by plan. For a detailed estimate of any co-pay or out-of-pocket cost, contact your insurance company.

Getting mental health care in New Jersey

Access to psychiatric care in New Jersey is limited. New Jersey has 42 designated mental health Health Professional Shortage Areas covering about 690,000 people, and only about 52.3% of the psychiatric care need in those areas is met. To remove those shortage designations, HRSA estimates the state would need about 34 more practitioners (according to KFF as of 12/31/25).

Online care helps close that gap. Because your psychiatrist meets you by video, you're not limited to the providers who happen to have an opening near you.
