About
You’ve been carrying so much, for so long! Anxiety, relationship struggles, self-doubt, the feeling that no matter what you do, it’s never quite enough. Maybe you feel overwhelmed, disconnected, or like you’re always bracing for things to go wrong again. It’s exhausting and lonely. If this sounds familiar, please know it makes sense! The way you feel isn’t a flaw; It’s a response to pain you were never meant to carry alone. I’m Laurie Cape. I help adults who’ve survived childhood & relational trauma. Together we gently heal the wounds of the past so you feel more whole, connected & at peace in your current life & relationships. Together, we’ll create a safe, compassionate space where your story can be honored without shame—where you’ll feel seen, heard, and deeply supported. As we work, we’ll begin to untangle the old patterns that no longer serve you, and you’ll start to reconnect with your true self—the one who has always been there, waiting to be welcomed home. My approach is warm, holistic & empowering. I draw from modern, trauma-informed practices that help you heal not just your mind, but your body, emotions, and spirit. This isn’t about fixing you—you're not broken! It’s about nurturing the parts of you that learned to survive & helping you grow into the version of yourself that feels free, grounded and alive. Specialties: I help women with shame/inadequacy from childhood trauma to create personal boundaries with your time, energy and physical body. I can help you believe in your personal value, stop compulsively "over-giving" and pleasing others, and learn to demand equal respect from others and to honor yourself completely. Credentials & Experience: With over 30 years of professional experience in helping people, I bring a vast amount of experience and wisdom to my practice with clients. I'm passionate about growth and I was an educator & school counselor prior to my residential, outpatient and private practice mental health therapy experiences

Insurance & Policies
I believe in direct services to clients without utilizing third-party payors for many reasons and am happy to discuss this with clients. I believe clients should maintain complete autonomy and ownership over their own healing process and that self-pay is the best way to achieve this.
