Kristie Guarino

Hi, I'm Kristie, a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner who believes that feeling heard and understood is an important part of healing. I strive to create a warm, judgment-free space where you can openly discuss your concerns, challenges, and goals. Before becoming a nurse practitioner, I spent nine years working in the Emergency Department at Westchester Medical Center, where I learned the importance of listening, empathy, and supporting people through difficult moments. My goal is to help you feel supported, empowered, and confident as we work together toward improved mental wellness.

My approach to care is collaborative, compassionate, and tailored to your unique needs, because I believe there is no one-size-fits-all approach to mental health treatment.

Your first session is a chance for us to get to know each other and discuss what brings you to treatment. We'll review your symptoms, history, and goals, and I'll take time to answer any questions you may have. Together, we'll create a personalized plan to help you move forward feeling supported and understood.
