Hello, and thank you for considering my services for your mental health needs. I am a board-certified Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner & hold a Master of Science in Nursing from Columbia University. I have a passion for providing comprehensive mental health care to individuals of all backgrounds. With 6 years of experience in nursing through various work-settings , I have dedicated myself to helping clients navigate their mental health journeys with empathy, understanding, and expertise. Our approach will be holistic, focusing on the needs of your entire being while integrating mindfulness practices. Regardless of what you’re dealing with; I am here to support you.
The initial psychiatric evaluation is approximately 60-minutes, focusing on your symptoms and work toward a diagnosis. We use this time to review your current presentations as well as your medication, medical, family, and psychiatric history. We consider whether medication management would be appropriate for you and come up with a plan together to help you move in a new direction. Each treatment plan is individualized and catered to each patient.
I firmly believe in taking a holistic approach to mental health, recognizing that each individual is a unique combination of physical, emotional, social, and spiritual elements. My goal is to address mental health concerns not only from a clinical standpoint but also by considering the interconnectedness of various aspects of a person's life. Therefore, I strive to create a safe and inclusive space where clients feel heard, respected, and understood regardless of their race, gender, cultural and religious background.

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
I've found Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to be a cornerstone of my practice. CBT is a structured, goal-oriented approach that focuses on identifying and changing negative thought patterns and behaviors that contribute to emotional distress. I incorporate CBT for assessment/goal setting, identifying negative thoughts and cognitive restructuring.

Ketnie makes me think about how things don’t have to be black or white—that it’s okay to live in a gray area when it comes to my therapeutic needs. She never pressures me but gives me all the tools and knowledge needed for me to make an informed decision. I’m grateful to have found her.

She is one of the few psychiatrist that has ever actually listened to me. She's very informative and answers all my questions about diagnosis & treatments. I would recommend her to anyone

Ms. Aristide has been extremely helpful. She is very easy to talk to and I feel like she really understands me. I'm beyond happy that I found her and started working with her. I would definitely recommend her.
