About Arianna
Arianna Pescatore is an Indiana Psychologist (IN Psychologist 20042089A) with 21 years of clinical work. She has a Psy.D and long experience working in the federal prison system. She lists stress, anxiety, addictions, anger, self esteem, and depression among her central concerns.
Arianna focuses on practical ways to manage strong feelings and difficult moments. She helps people break concerns into small steps they can try between sessions. That can mean working on coping skills for anxiety, learning new ways to manage anger, or addressing patterns that keep someone stuck in addiction or low mood.
Her sessions draw on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and mindfulness methods. Those approaches are used to notice unhelpful thinking, practice emotional regulation, and build tolerance for distress. Work is described plainly, with attention to what someone can do day to day.
She often helps clients who feel isolated or struggle with relationship and communication problems, abandonment concerns, body image, and life purpose. She also has experience supporting people facing first responder issues and co-occurring mood or substance concerns. The focus is on developing skills and routines that make daily life more manageable.
People who choose her can expect a straightforward, skills-based approach. Sessions emphasize clear goals, behavior-focused exercises, and mindfulness practices to reduce reactivity. Those interested in starting are asked to follow the site's guidance to begin the matching and scheduling process.
How online sessions use CBT, DBT and mindfulness
Arianna draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people identify unhelpful thoughts and test new ways of thinking and behaving. CBT focuses on small, concrete experiments that can change how situations are experienced and reacted to.She also uses Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills to teach emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and clearer communication. DBT exercises can be practiced in daily life to reduce intense reactions and improve problem solving.
Mindfulness methods are used to increase present-moment awareness and reduce automatic responding. Short exercises and breathing practices are common tools to lower arousal and improve focus.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences, and may combine elements from these approaches as needed.
