Anthony Canapi - Your Queer Relationship Therapist
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, AMFT
Being LGBTQPIA2S+ in a world that often misunderstands or marginalizes your identity can shape how you move through relationships, family systems, work, dating, and self-worth. You might be navigating coming out, cultural expectations, faith conflicts, chosen family, gender exploration, or simply the exhaustion of explaining yourself.
My work is grounded in LGBTQ+ affirmative psychology and lived experience. Therapy with me is not about defending your identity- it’s about deepening into it. Together, we’ll create space to unpack internalized messages, strengthen self-trust, explore authenticity, and build relationships that honor who you truly are. You deserve spaces where you are celebrated, not tolerated.

Tim Eby-McKenzie
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
My experience with the LGBTQ+ community stems from working over a long period with clients and in personal relationships as a straight ally. Discrimination, rejection, implicit and pervasive bias, legal challenges and the long-term impact of never "belonging" are all just some of the detrimental impacts of simply being. My work with LGBTQ+ clients focuses on meeting the client wherever they are and providing support, encouragement, psycho-education, and other interventions to promote both healing and growth.
34 Years Experience
Online in Fresno, CA California
Fresno sits at the center of California's San Joaquin Valley and serves a largely agricultural economy, with therapists frequently addressing the mental health effects of seasonal work instability, rural poverty, and the physical and psychological demands of farmworker life. The city has large Hispanic, Hmong, and Southeast Asian communities — many with refugee backgrounds — creating demand for multilingual and culturally informed therapists who work with intergenerational trauma, resettlement stress, and identity. Community Regional Medical Center and UCSF Fresno provide institutional mental health resources, while the California State University Fresno psychology program feeds practitioners into the local community. Fresno's relatively limited therapy density compared to coastal metros makes telehealth an important access route for residents across the Central Valley.
