About Arianna
Arianna Pescatore is an Indiana Psychologist (IN Psychologist 20042089A) with 21 years of clinical work experience. She completed a Psy.D. and has spent much of her career providing care in the federal prison system. She helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, anger, and low self-esteem, and she lists life purpose among her focus areas.
She uses straightforward, skills-based approaches in sessions. Arianna draws on cognitive behavioral therapy to look at thoughts and actions that keep problems going. She uses elements of dialectical behavior therapy to teach emotion regulation and distress tolerance skills. Mindfulness practices are introduced to support focus and reduce reactivity.
Clients often come with issues such as codependency, communication problems, commitment worries, body image concerns, or feelings of emptiness. She also works with people facing divorce or separation, first responder issues, substance concerns, and mood disorders. Sessions emphasize practical steps and clear strategies to manage difficult moments.
Across her years in correctional settings, Arianna has worked with complex presentations and co-occurring problems. That experience shapes a direct, problem-solving approach in outpatient conversations. She aims to help people build resilience, improve coping, and increase confidence in everyday situations.

How CBT, DBT and Mindfulness work in online sessions
Online sessions with Arianna are grounded in practical approaches. Cognitive behavioral therapy focuses on identifying specific thought and behavior patterns and testing small changes to see what helps. That approach is often used for anxiety, depression, and motivation problems. Dialectical behavior therapy emphasizes emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness skills that people can practice during stressful moments.Mindfulness practice is used to build attention and reduce automatic reactions to difficult feelings. These methods are presented in clear steps and practiced together so clients can use them outside sessions. Choosing the right mix of techniques is part of the work itself, and Arianna will collaborate with each person to find what fits their goals and preferences.
The practical benefits of remote sessions include fitting meetings into a busy week and having shorter check-ins when needed. The biography does not specify which session formats are offered, so confirm current session options before booking.
