COPE Program

Our COPE program is an Evidence-based CBT-Based Skills Building Programs (Cognitive Behavior Therapy) for children, teens, and young adults/college students designed to help cope with anxiety, stress, and depression by teaching them how to develop skills needed to stop negative or unhelpful thoughts and start thinking, feeling and behaving in more positive ways. Learning that you can’t always control what happens, but you can control the way you respond to what happens, is very empowering. Over 20 studies during a 30 year time span support that COPE reduces anxiety, depression and stress as well as improves self-esteem, healthy behaviors and academic performance.

It is a 7-Session manual-based instructor-delivered program made for children, teens, and young adults using brief, easy-to-follow sessions, complete with skills -building activities, that convey that there is hope for change, and that both depression and anxiety can be improved by learning the skills taught in COPE. It comes with a workbook and is led by our trained Nurse Practitioners.
