About Arianna

Arianna Pescatore is a clinical psychologist licensed in Indiana with a Doctor of Psychology (Psy.D.) and 21 years of clinical experience. She brings a calm, straightforward approach to concerns like stress, anxiety, depression, anger, and addictions. She aims to make it easier for people to talk about hard things and to find practical ways forward.

She spent much of her career working in the federal prison system, which shaped a direct and focused style of care. Sessions tend to center on clear goals and steps clients can try between meetings. She helps people build coping skills, strengthen resilience, and work on motivation and confidence.

Her work draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and Mindfulness Therapy to address thinking patterns, emotion regulation, and present-moment awareness. These approaches are used to help with mood disorders, self-esteem issues, substance concerns, and repeated interpersonal patterns such as codependency or communication problems.

People often come for help with life transitions like divorce or separation, feelings of emptiness or isolation, or job-related stress and burnout. She also has experience addressing first responder issues and co-occurring mental health and substance use concerns. Sessions are offered in English and take place with an Indiana license.

If someone is considering starting therapy, the first step is to use the platform’s Start Therapy button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule according to therapist availability. Costs vary by location and use a subscription that can be canceled at any time.

How CBT, DBT, and Mindfulness work in online care

CBT, or Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, focuses on the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. Sessions help identify unhelpful thinking patterns and try small behavioral experiments to reduce anxiety, low mood, or unhealthy habits.

DBT, or Dialectical Behavior Therapy, emphasizes skills for managing strong emotions and improving interpersonal effectiveness. It is useful for anger, impulse control, addictions, and learning steady coping strategies when emotions feel overwhelming.

Mindfulness Therapy trains simple awareness skills to notice the present moment and reduce rumination. These practices can support stress reduction, improved focus at work, and a calmer response to triggering situations.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals, needs, and daily routines to decide which methods to try first. Plans are adjusted over time based on what is helpful.

Session format options are not specified in the biography, so confirm current session types before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins on stressful days, or remove travel time. These practical benefits can help people maintain progress while juggling work and life commitments.
