Hear From Our Staff
"I started working for COPE as a Psychosocial Support Worker delivering NDIS services in October 2020. In my time here, I have loved watching our team grow and continuously improve in the quality psychological services we provide our clients.
COPE hire fantastic, friendly and warm people who embody the company values of compassion and making a difference to our clients lives. We have a culture of recognising and celebrating small and big wins – which I absolutely love for our team morale. COPE recognise the valuable contributions of their staff by investing in their people through a range of professional development and team-building activities.
I thoroughly enjoy being a member of the COPE family and look forward to welcoming many new additions in the future!"
"I see clients of all walks of life and ages at COPE, with clinical diagnosis as diverse as their presenting issues. This makes it exiting and rewarding, as I am able to witness on a daily basis how Arts Therapy helps so many individual clients regain their selves and have their voice heard. Working at COPE means for me to be greeted with a smile, be respected for my expertise, feeling supported by team members, and encouraged to learn, learn, learn each and every week a bit more to keep growing my clinical profession".
