What is Arista?
Arista is a dream come true. I have always envisioned a society that is mentally aware and is not hesitant to ask for help.
The word Arista means Happiness and security. Isn’t that all we look for in our lives? True to our name, we want to provide a safe space for every individual to vent their thoughts and emotions irrespective of their differences. This venting is done to trained professionals in a judgement free zone.
Problems big or small is given equal importance at Arista. We help the client identify their maladaptive thinking/feeling and help them modify it. This is done through online and face to face counselling sessions and training programs.
Mental health is not taken seriously until it is extreme. But small stressors in our everyday lives might have significant impact in our overall wellbeing. We at Arista focus on removing these stressors and bring a positive impact on people’s lives.
Psychoeducation is one of our main goals. We strive to help people understand themselves better and provide adequate mental health awareness. This in order promotes self-love and a way to fulfilled life with efficient coping strategies.
We ultimately look forward to spread a little love and harvest healthy minds.

Why Arista?
Mental health has always been an important aspect of my life. My personal journey with regard to mental health got so much better once I decided to seek help. The positive impact of counselling and psychological interventions on my wellbeing wanted me to become a psychologist
On the other hand I was seeing so many people struggle everyday belittling their issues and feelings and staying in denial. While growing up I lost few close people to suicide. All this deeply hurt me. Questions like ‘would it be different if they asked for help?’’ did they even know help existed?’ haunted me. That’s when I was even surer and determined what on what I should do.
I have been an advocate on mental health since I understood about it. All my education was focused to reach this point. Once I was Qualified I started Arista. Arista is a start to make mental health affordable. It also serves as a platform for psychoeducation.
I believe through Arista and my team we can bring in some positive change and help people lead a much peaceful life.
