COPE Care and Treatment

The eating disorders program at COPE (Center for Overcoming Problem Eating) includes an inpatient unit and three levels of outpatient care:

The program takes a holistic approach to treat individuals at any stage of an eating disorder.

Patient needs are assessed by a multidisciplinary team of:

  • physicians
  • psychiatrists, psychologists, and psychiatric social workers
  • nurses and nurse practitioners
  • other mental health professionals

Outcomes of Treatment

After completing a treatment program at COPE, the majority of patients achieve their weight gain goals and continue treatment through an outpatient care program (note: every patient is unique, however, and the outcomes may differ.)

Payment and Insurance

Each health insurance plan is different and has specific requirements. Review your health insurance policy and know your coverage prior to receiving treatment at COPE.

If you would like to discuss your coverage, please contact our office at 412-647-9329.

From a Patient

“I just wanted to thank you for everything that you’ve done for me while I have been in PHP and POP — especially your hugs. But really, I couldn’t have done it without you and your constant support and encouragement. You really believed in my ability to overcome my eating disorder and because you believed in me, I believed in me … and, so here I am. Thank you, thank you so much for setting me free. Please know that you’ll always have a very special place in my heart.”
