Welcome. Thank you for visiting COPE Today. We hope you have found a place where you feel comfortable.

COPE Today eliminates the barriers to mental health care by providing treatment through live chat, secure messaging, telephony and video. 

COPE Today started when the founder, Tania Malik, was motivated by the soldiers returning from Iraq and Afghanistan with mental health issues where the perceived stigma is high, the access is limited, and the need is so great.  It seemed obvious to her that the Internet is an outstanding alternative for people to reach out and have someone listen to their concerns. Tania became determined to create a place where people felt comfortable and safe talking about their problems. She devised COPE Today to eliminate barriers such as perceived stigma and discrimination.

After Tania visualized COPE Today, she reached out to her former boss at PricewaterhouseCoopers, who was a nationally recognized expert in mental health issues, and told him her vision. He endorsed the idea and they got to work.

Members of the North Carolina National Guard were the first to use COPE Today. Tania is honored to work with the Guard because those soldiers are our citizen-soldiers. They can literally be at their normal job one day and the next day finds them in Mississippi training to go to Iraq. Tania learned from that implementation and modified the COPE Today platform accordingly.  For example, she did not have plans to include live chat in the service, but she quickly learned that when people reach out for help, they want it immediately. Live chat is now one of the services at COPE Today.
