Why is it that I can't take the capital of Aragon (Valencia) even when I have casus belli on Valencia? I've done some searching and some people say you need to take all nearby zones as well, but I HAVE taken all of them including the bordering island zone. Valencia still doesn't show up as an annexation option when I sue for peace.

You need to take all the surrounding provinces in a previous war, and then you can take the capital. Occupying the provinces is not enough.
Captial provinces cannot be taken in a normal war unless; it is the opposition's only province ie: the last county, or if it's an isolated exclave, with subsuming this to be the only war-goal.
