Anxiety and depression therapists and psychiatrists in Clearwater, FL

Growing up in the Bronx as a first-generation Dominican American shaped how I think about mental health — and who I became as a therapist.

I'm Yesenia Aponte, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and psychotherapist. I've spent 8 years working with adolescents and adults navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, life transitions, and the specific weight of living between cultures. I work with clients from all backgrounds, but I have a particular connection to clients from immigrant families, Latinx communities, and anyone who's ever felt like a therapist didn't fully understand their world.

I got into this work because mental health support wasn't always visible or accessible in communities like the one I grew up in. Beyond my practice, I'm involved in community outreach and advocacy to make mental health less stigmatized and more reachable — especially for people who've been told it's not "for them."

I also offer therapy in both English and Spanish.

I have worked with individuals from diverse backgrounds across inpatient settings, emergency services, nonprofit organizations, and military environments. These experiences have shaped my approach to counseling to meet clients with compassion, respect, and understanding. My goal is to create a safe, supportive space where clients feel heard, valued, and empowered especially during times of stress or transition.

Hi there! I am a bilingual (Spanish/English) Licensed Mental Health Counselor with 6 years of experience in the field. In my experience, I have worked with children, teens and adults healing from trauma, abuse, attachment injuries, and neglect. I also support parents who want to strengthen parent-child relationships, understand how early experiences shape their parenting and build healthier family dynamics.

I am a board-certified mental health counselor in practice for 14 years. I am certified in Psychedelic Assisted Therapy.

I enjoy and have experience working with people on a wide range of issues. Some of the things I commonly help people with are: anxiety, depression, relationship issues, divorce / breakups, disordered eating / body image issues, parenting challenges, and just feeling “stuck.”

I am deeply committed to my own growth and development as a human being, which has been catalyzed by my personal meditation and mindfulness practice.

I welcome diversity of all kinds, including race, ethnicity, body size, gender, sexual orientation, country of origin, ability, and age. Everyone.
