Through a series of brief, easy-to-follow sessions, complete with skills-building activities, the evidence-based COPE Programs convey that there is hope for change, and that both depression and anxiety are treatable. COPE recognizes that we can't control trigger events, but we can control our responses to them.
Cost Effective Investment with Fast Implementation:
Instructor training completed online (available 24/7) in about 3.5 hours.
A Starter set of 3 student manuals & a supplemental instructor manual is included. Instructors will need their own set of student manuals when working with the students/patients.
SAMPLE QUOTE FROM ONE OF OUR MANY COPE PROGRAM INSTRUCTORS/FACILITATORS
““I have taught both the child and teen versions of COPE, and have found it to be a creative and accessible format for teaching coping skills and resilience. Our data showed that over 90% of students who went through COPE felt that they learned healthy coping skills as well as new ways to deal with their thoughts and feelings. The variety of activities make COPE a pleasure to teach, and I believe that it is helpful in building self-esteem and empowering children to make positive choices when they face stress. COPE is an excellent program and I am proud to teach it!”

Which Program should I select?
The manual-based 7-session and 15-session programs are designed to be "taught from the manual", so they can be delivered by counselors, teachers, school nurses, etc. to students one-on-one or in a small group or classroom session. Below is a guide as to which program should be ordered.
Grade Schools, Middle Schools, and High Schools
Children (ages 7-11)
7-Session Manual-based Instructor-delivered Program
Teens (ages 11-18)
7-Session Manual-based Instructor-delivered Program
15-Session Healthy Lifestyles Manual-based Instructor-delivered Health and Wellness Program
7-Session Online Self-Delivered Program
Colleges/Universities
Young Adults (ages 18-24)
7-Session Manual-based, Instructor-delivered Program (for those wanting their students to acquire the coping skills to succeed in college)
Train-the-Trainer Program for nursing, social work, psychology, and wellness faculty members who would like to use COPE to teach CBT to their FNP, DNP, Psych NP, social work, psychology, and fitness/wellness students. In doing so, their students benefit from learning the cognitive-behavioral therapy based skills and are then able to deliver it to their patients or clients.
If you are interested in participating in the train-the-trainer program, I will mail you a jump drive with my training slides so that you can take your students through the program. I will also provide free access to my licensing training videos for you and will significantly reduce the cost of the training program for the students that you train who want to opt for license so that they can become a COPE instructor as well. Contact us for current discounted student pricing at cope.melnyk@gmail.com. Each student will receive a student manual and a supplemental instructor guide. Although you as the instructor can decide which manual you would like the students to purchase, I recommend that the students purchase the young adult manual and practice with their peers. It is also expected that they will practice all 7 sessions as each session builds on the prior session in a sequence designed to reduce anxiety and depression. Please don’t hesitate to contact me at cope.melnyk@gmail.com for more information.
Instructor training (about three hours) is available online, 24/7.
Cost-Effective: Print-Your-Own student manuals/workbooks as low as $10/student with a minimum purchase of 200. Orders coming from foreign countries must include a print-your-own purchase with purchase of the instructor training order.

Great Tool for College Prep and Entering Freshmen Students
College Preparation for High School Students
Current high school college prep courses do a wonderful job of helping students meet the scholastic requirements for entry into colleges and universities.
New findings from University presidents indicate mental health problems of their students is a priority.
Our evidence-based instructor and self-delivered programs provide a easily-integrated CBT-based supplemental tool for preparing high school students to handle the stresses of college, ensuring a smoother transition and facilitating academic success.
Stress Management for Current College Students
Attending college can be extremely stressful for teens and young adults, especially in their Freshman year. Mild or extreme anxiety and depression can occur any time during their years attending college.
Coping with the new routines and higher expectations coupled with being away from home and access to their normal support system can be particularly challenging and can quickly become overwhelming.
Our 7-Session Young Adult Manuals are designed for college/university-age students.

To help schools quickly implement and deliver our programs to students during these particularly stressful years, COPE2Thrive now also provides all-inclusive program bundles designed to quickly equip schools with the resources needed to handle the unique needs of each transitional year (includes online instructor training for four school personnel and manuals for over 200 students).
For those who prefer building their own package, individual programs are still available.
