More about Leslie
- 24 years' experience

- LMHC
I hold a Masters and a Ph.D. in counseling psychology and have been licensed as a mental health or professional counselor (LMHC) since 1994. Over the past 25 years, I have worked as an individual counselor with college-aged students and adults in clinical, private practice, and non-profit settings. I also have experience working as an Indiana University (Indianapolis) associate professor in their undergraduate and graduate counseling and psychology programs. My specialty as a counselor is helping you to quickly identify and understand your blind spots and move beyond them. Blind spots are those beliefs or areas of your life that often keep us stuck repeating the same patterns that often cause relationship problems, depression, anxiety, and other issues. Many times in our life, we find ourselves stuck or overwhelmed, not knowing how to move forward. As a counselor, I will encourage, support, and assist you in moving beyond your current situation. Using theories or techniques of cognitive psychology, I help identify the distorted thought patterns that no longer work for you and teach you the tools necessary to grow and move beyond your current challenge. Counseling can help you move beyond a state of helplessness by examining new possibilities and helping you make the changes necessary to create the life you want.
The counseling relationship is important to the successful outcome of therapy. By building a relational foundation, you can lessen your defenses and open yourself to the possibilities for change. This foundation enables you to explore yourself and your situation, understand self-defeating behaviors, and make the necessary steps for change. You are an active participant in the counseling process. My approach is warm and empathetic, yet also direct and authentic. It's important to remember that as a counselor, I'm not here to judge you but rather to support, encourage, and guide you as you navigate through challenges.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

Dr Capehart is very responsive to messages and has been very helpful in reframing things and working to identify patterns and how they are effecting me so I can make different choices and work through limitations
This app absolutely changed my life for the better! A crucial tool I use to help with all the best and lowest moments in my life! I have the best therapist I've ever had before, and I've had a few. I cannot recommend Dr. Capehart enough, she is an incredible therapist and I feel so privileged to have access to such an amazing therapist!
She’s amazing! Dr. Capehart led me to the heart of the issues I was dealing with in an open and clever way. She helped me confront certain truths I was unaware of in a supportive and constructive fashion. I left each session feeling better and with new insights.
Dr. Capehart is very empathetic, a good listener and asks good questions. She was responsive to all communication, be it written or verbal. She helped get unstuck and I am very grateful!
Dr.Capehart is amazing! She is very educated and also shares similar values and beliefs with me which helps make things easier to say
Dr. Capehart is a great listener and I enjoy our sessions they are very helpful
She listens to understand and she understands me!
Dr. Capehart has been immensely helpful to me in exploring my anxiety and advising me on methods to cope and heal from trauma. She listens very intently and speaks in a manner that is both comforting and approachable. I have learned many things from her and appreciate the many years of experience that are reflected in her sessions. I would absolutely recommend her as a therapist and am grateful for the opportunity to have worked with her.
She is a fantastic therapist, I highly recommend her services!
Dr. Capehart is/has been a blessing. Immediately I felt comfortable and safe. I found myself talking and processing things that I didn’t know I “needed” to discuss. She is kind, patient an active listener. I appreciate the questions she asks that push me to a deeper discovery. She provides helpful exercises as I work to rewrite some personal/internal narratives. I highly recommend Dr Capehart
Dr. Capehart is an amazing therapist. She is knowledgeable, empathetic and professional. She is timely and thoughtful in her responses to my text messages, which helps a lot. She is a great listener, and really helps me connect the dots between my experiences to help me see patterns in my behaviours and thoughts. I would recommend her to anyone!
Dr. Capehart has been kind, empathetic, and insightful from the moment we started working together. She used a really thoughtful intake form prior to our first session so that we were able to get right to work and walk through some of the challenges I have been experiencing. Each week working with her offers a refreshing new outlook and encouragement to be curious about myself and my experiences. I have greatly enjoyed working with her and find the platform easy to navigate to stay organized and would recommend Better Help to anyone looking for a more versatile, augmented approach to traditional talk therapy.
Dr. Capehart is very empathetic and provides ways and insight on avenues to dealing with situations.
