Fire, bleed to some extent (if you can hit her enough times in rapid succession, that is). Nothing that makes much of a difference, though. I struggled immensely with this fight until I tried using the Farron Greatsword. With her low poise, it's easy to hit her with all three attacks from the weapon's Abyss Watcher-esque combo, dealing massive damage. I also found it pretty easy to avoid serious damage when employing this strategy -- I didn't really have to dodge that much, just flip around like a madman. If the FGS isn't your cup of tea, I suggest using another large weapon; I've heard they work well. You might want to use something faster against Ariandel, though.
