About Amaranta Penate-Marty

Amaranta Penate-Marty is a bilingual, bicultural psychotherapist who approaches clinical work as a calling rather than a job. She helps people discover how small shifts in thinking can change emotions and behavior, and she encourages clients to invest time in understanding their patterns to build healthier, more satisfying lives.

She has extensive training in trauma, depression, anxiety and other mood and personality diagnoses, as well as grief and substance abuse. Her ability to work across North American and Hispanic cultures deepens her perspective on relationship and family dynamics, especially when language and cultural differences create barriers to connection. That cultural fluency informs her work with couples and families facing cross-cultural stressors.

Amaranta adapts her professional training to the needs of each person she sees, treating every client as an individual with unique strengths and challenges. She believes counseling is for people who want change, and her practice is grounded in unconditional acceptance as a core life philosophy. Amaranta holds the LPC credential, which stands for Licensed Professional Counselor, and she looks forward to beginning collaborative work with people who are ready to pursue growth and healing.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support

Amaranta integrates practical, evidence-based approaches into online work to help people address patterns that interfere with daily life. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, and it is often used to address anxiety, depression, and stress-related concerns. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) emphasizes building skills for emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness, which can help when emotions feel overwhelming or relationships are strained. Mindfulness Therapy introduces present-moment awareness and gentle attention to thoughts and sensations, offering tools to reduce rumination and improve coping with difficult emotions.

Finding the best therapeutic approach is part of the collaborative process. Amaranta works with each person to match techniques to their needs, goals, and personal preferences, adjusting strategies as progress unfolds. Clients and therapist decide together what fits best.

Online sessions offer practical flexibility - video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, maintain continuity during life transitions, and access care from different locations. These options support consistent work on goals while accommodating varied routines and comfort levels with communication styles.
