Welcome to Our Tribe
MEETING WITH A THERAPIST WHO “GETS” YOU
“We are all radically aligned and connected. Through life and events we sometimes lose that connection, even to self, our most authentic self, our purpose. What I inspire to do is support you on your journey to getting back to you, getting back to center. Through energetic shifts and empowering tactics, (i'll definitely even be sharing some pixie dust your way lol) let’s choose you, the happiest, most soulful version of you. Let's amplify your deepest power, super powers. You’re here and that means you're ready. Let's get through the hard stuff together. I’m here to walk beside you and if you feel the burden is too heavy to carry, you can let go of all the heaviness you’ve been carrying alone, because you're not alone, I’m here with you my friend. Join me on this incredible journey of self-discovery that has the potential to strengthen your connection with yourself as well as others. Let's get you to living the life you deserve and being the best versions of yourself, soulfully.”
Love & Light my friends

She specializes in anxiety therapy, trauma therapy, perinatal and postpartum mental health, self-esteem, empowerment, and supporting empaths and highly sensitive individuals. Many clients are high-functioning on the outside while feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, or unseen on the inside. Colette meets each person with warmth, presence, and care.
New Day Vitality was created as a safe and brave space—one where you do not need to perform, explain, or minimize your pain. Colette brings her authentic self into every session, guided by the belief that being truly heard and held is sacred work. Healing unfolds through compassion, honesty, and gentleness.
In addition to her clinical work, Colette is the producer and host of Love, Light, and Healing with Colette Lopane-Capella and a national speaker on trauma, anxiety, postpartum advocacy, mindfulness, identity, and emotional wellbeing.
