About Arianna
Arianna Pescatore is a clinical psychologist licensed in Indiana who brings 21 years of experience to her therapeutic work.
Background and approach
She emphasizes evidence-based approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy alongside techniques from Dialectical Behavior Therapy and mindfulness to help clients develop practical skills for managing stress, anxiety, depression, and challenges related to addictions and anger. Her practice centers on strengthening coping strategies, motivation, and resilience while supporting improvements in self-esteem and confidence.
Drawing on extensive clinical experience in the federal prison system, she offers informed guidance for concerns that include mood disorders, communication and commitment issues, codependency, body image and feelings of emptiness, and the complexities of co-morbidity.
Sessions aim to create an open environment where thoughts and feelings can be explored without judgment, and treatment focuses on building skills that translate into day-to-day life. Arianna approaches therapy as a collaborative process, helping clients set practical goals and develop tools that address both immediate symptoms and longer-term well-being.
Practical Therapeutic Approaches for Online Support
Arianna integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients identify and shift unhelpful thinking patterns and related behaviors, which can reduce symptoms of anxiety and depression through structured skill-building. She also draws on Dialectical Behavior Therapy to teach concrete emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness tools useful for managing intense emotions and improving communication.Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and she works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods best match their goals, preferences, and life circumstances. That collaboration includes reviewing how different techniques feel in practice and adjusting the plan as progress and needs evolve.
Online sessions are offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility for people juggling work, family, or other commitments. These formats make it easier to maintain continuity of care and to practice skills between sessions, while scheduling can be arranged to fit changing availability.
