Dr. Barbara Kapetanakes is happy to announce that she recently added divorce mediation to the services she already provides as a licensed psychologist. Dr. Kapetanakes is a therapist who has worked for over 20 years with divorcing couples and their children, and she is now putting her negotiation skills to work in a new way, engaging in formal mediation.
Divorce mediation is done in a cooperative manner, where the mediator works for the couple, not for one party of the other. It is best suited for cases that are less acrimonious, where the separating couple can work together to find a solution that works for both. This is especially helpful when children are involved, as they are not caught in the conflict. Most people find that mediation costs a fraction of what traditional litigation costs.
Dr. Kapetanakes continues to offer psychotherapy for individuals, couples, and families, as well as neuropsychological evaluations, supervisions, and presentations. She practices in Sleepy Hollow at 239 North Broadway, and can be reached at (914) 332-9194. Her website is bksleepyhollowtherapist.com
