About Amaranta Penate-Marty
Amaranta Penate-Marty is a bilingual, bicultural psychotherapist who approaches counseling as a calling rather than just a job. She helps people recognize how patterns of thinking shape emotions and behaviors, and she supports clients in making small investments of time that can lead to healthier, more satisfying lives. Amaranta holds the LPC credential - Licensed Professional Counselor - which denotes formal training and authorization to provide therapeutic services.
She has extensive training in trauma, depression, anxiety and other mood and personality diagnoses, as well as grief and substance abuse. Being able to work across North American and Hispanic cultures has broadened her understanding of how language and cultural differences can affect relationships among couples and within families. That bicultural perspective informs her work with diverse clients.
Amaranta tailors her clinical training to the individual needs of each person she sees, adapting methods to fit the client rather than applying a one-size-fits-all approach. She views counseling as a resource for people who believe in change and values offering unconditional acceptance as a central element of her practice. Her work centers on helping individuals, couples, and families develop clearer thinking, greater emotional regulation, and more effective interpersonal skills.

Evidence-Informed Approaches for Online Therapy
Amaranta Penate-Marty integrates several structured approaches to help clients address emotional and behavioral challenges. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviors; it is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress-related concerns by teaching practical skills and problem solving. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) combines acceptance and change strategies and emphasizes emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness - it can be especially helpful for intense emotions and relationship difficulties. Mindfulness Therapy encourages present-moment awareness and nonjudgmental observation of thoughts and feelings, which supports coping with stress, grief, and recurring negative thinking.Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Amaranta works collaboratively with each person to determine the best fit based on needs, goals, and preferences. She adapts techniques from these models to match each client’s cultural background and life context, and she reviews progress to adjust the plan as needed.
Online therapy with Amaranta is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to access licensed professionals from varied locations, maintain continuity of care during life transitions, and fit therapy into busy routines.
