Licensed Therapist

Who We Are

Since opening our doors in early 2020, we’ve welcomed patients who are seeking an inclusive and welcoming medical facility. We specialize in Sexual Health and LBGTQIA+ Health. We are an affirming practice, and welcome all LBGTQIA+ individuals and allies. 

We strive to provide the best care possible, especially to individuals that may typically be marginalized or treated poorly in healthcare. This includes women, LBGTQIA+ individuals and people seeking mental health treatment. Canopy Medical Clinic’s staff has the responsibility to educate themselves about their own biases towards those of different races, creeds, identities, cultures, mental abilities, orientations, etc, and then to seek out education and consultation to prevent biases from interfering with your healthcare needs.

We are committed to being a leader in affirming healthcare practices. We provide educational and training opportunities to organizations within our community to help spread awareness and information regarding LBGTQIA healthcare barriers and current best practices.
