I wouldn't let one bad grade stop you from applying! It's really not the end of the world, especially since its organic chemistry which isn't a psychology course. I got a D in a required philosophy/cognition course in my third year and I was accepted to a competitive clinical program this year. That grade didn't come up in any of my interviews so honestly I don't think anyone cared or noticed. Maybe if you had a pattern of less than stellar grades then that would be something you should address in your LOI but I wouldn't even bring this up if its a one off grade in an irrelevant class. GPA is just one component of admission requirements. You can also chose to take the GRE (it looks like many schools are dropping it for next cycle though?) and strong scores may help offset a "weaker" GPA- although again one bad grade isn't going to determine whether you get in or not.
I found that many POIs were generally more lax about having a strict GPA cutoff, preferring to focus holistically on research experience, life background, applied skills, scientific literacy, personality fit, etc. when choosing potential candidates. If you're still concerned about this grade you can work towards buffing up other components on your application ahead of the next cycle to lessen the impact of this grade.
TLDR: I don't think it's a big deal, you should definitely apply if you want to go into clinical!
