COPE Program
The COPE Program (Coping Options for Parent Empowerment) is a brief, structured, transdiagnostic intervention designed to enhance parents' emotional regulation skills, improve parenting strategies, and foster a positive family environment. The program consists of four in-person group sessions, each lasting 90 minutes, conducted over four consecutive weeks. Each session focuses on specific emotional regulation and parenting skills: Session 1: Understanding emotional responses and parenting strategies based on positive reinforcement, selective attention, and empathy. Session 2: Identifying family values, promoting healthy routines, and planning alternative parenting behaviors. Session 3: Practicing mindfulness techniques and modeling emotional regulation in the presence of children. Session 4: Addressing intolerance to uncertainty, cognitive distortions, and promoting healthy independence in adolescents.
