Services available across the Central Coast and throughout California through in-person and virtual care
COPE (Cottage Outpatient Program Experience) Intensive Outpatient Programs (IOP) provides flexible, accessible behavioral health services for individuals seeking treatment for substance use disorders and mental health conditions across the Central Coast and throughout California.
With more than 30 years of experience, COPE offers structured, evidence-based outpatient care for individuals in recovery from substance use disorders, those managing mental health conditions, and individuals with co-occurring (dual diagnosis) needs. This approach allows patients to remain at home and continue daily responsibilities during treatment.
Services are available in person at COPE’s Santa Barbara clinic and through virtual care options across California, helping to reduce barriers such as travel and scheduling.
COPE provides dedicated treatment tracks for individuals experiencing depression, anxiety and other mental health concerns, as well as for those working toward recovery from alcohol or drug addiction.
“Flexible care options can make a difference in whether someone begins and stays in treatment,” said Layla Farinpour, Director of Clinical Care Psychiatry and Addiction Medicine at Cottage Health. “Our focus is on making that step easier by offering support that meets individuals wherever they are in their journey.”
The program is led by a multidisciplinary team of licensed therapists and behavioral health specialists who provide individualized treatment plans, group therapy and skill-building sessions.
