“Innovative”

"Cope Notes can have a positive impact on anyone's mental health, but especially that of young adults. As modern solutions move further and further into telehealth, we need to include more innovative technologies like this one."

Kathy Moore

Executive Director | Florida Mental Health Institute

“Critical”

"Cope Notes just may be the critical link between technology and healthy brain development. While supportive services are hard to access due to our location, Cope Notes has proven to be a great asset for our rural youth in need."

Director | Youth Social Services of Marshall County

“A breath of fresh air”

"In such a negative era, the gift of positivity is a breath of fresh air. At its core, that's what Cope Notes is all about: using that positivity to help individuals achieve and maintain true mental wellness."

Director | NAMI Greater Orlando

“Brilliant”

"Most resources depend on the user to reach out, but Cope Notes actually takes the initiative to meet people where they are. This is arguably the first mobile tool in the mental health arena that's truly interventional. It’s helpful, funny, user-friendly, and always there when you need it."

“I looked everywhere”

"You wouldn't believe how much time and money I've wasted trying to screw my head on straight. My life coach was $125/hr. I'd drop $100 at a bar just to forget how I felt. Wish I found this 9 years ago. THANK YOU for making a tool that actually HELPS."

“Every parent needs to know about this”

"My son is a freshman in high school, and that's a tough time for a lot of kids. I signed him up for Cope Notes, praying it would help, and I can already see it working. He doesn't always listen to me, but he sure does listen to his phone!"

“Powerful”

"One of the most powerful components of Cope Notes' messages is that they're developed by people with lived experience managing an array of stressors and mental health conditions. Research suggests that peer support is a powerful force in helping people achieve stability and recovery."

“I’m in tears”

"DUUUUUDE! I'm laying here exhausted, overwhelmed, and feeling resentful. Then I get a text that basically says, 'Thank you for everything you did today.' I'm crying! THANK YOU! I REALLY needed that right now! I instantly regained my perspective."

“I was skeptical at first”

"When my sister signed me up for the free trial, I wasn't convinced. But after a few days of getting the perfect text at EXACTLY the right moment, I was sold. I'm already feeling more like myself. Kinda can't believe it works, tbh."
