Therapy Alliance
DivorceDoneRight and renowned Delaware Valley Therapy Group Align to Transform Divorce
June 6, 2007, Plymouth Meeting, PA -- DivorceDoneRight is once again garnering attention.
DivorceDoneRight and Delaware County Professional Services (DCPS) recently formed a partnership in an effort to transform the way couples divorce. Delaware County Professional Services (DCPS), based in Media, PA, is a highly regarded mental health organization with nearly 60 full-time psychiatrists, therapists and social workers. DCPS treats over 1,000 patients per week at their six Delaware Valley offices. DCPS treats a large number of children and couples who are affected by divorce or custody disputes.
Lynne DiCaprio, Director and Founder of DCPS, is a renowned psychologist and business leader with over 25 years of experience helping children and couples navigate their way through the minefield of divorce. She believes this alliance will serve her patients well.
“Divorce can be devastating to children, couples, and the family unit,” DiCaprio says. “We believe that DivorceDoneRight offers an approach that can help families make decisions that best serves their mental health. We are always looking for innovative ways to support our patients through this critical phase, and we believe DivorceDoneRight is transforming the way people approach the divorce process. We are very excited by this new alternative for our patients.”
Jon Ostroff, Founder and President of DivorceDoneRight, believes that this new partnership will further the mission of his company.
“DCPS and Lynne have been leaders in our mental health community for over two decades. Most of their patients are referred to them by highly regarded area physicians, schools, and other patients. They started out with a focus on children and are at the forefront in treating young children, pre-teens, and teenagers. Their unique intake system allows them to treat a patient in need on the same day. They have innovative approaches to couples counseling that have gotten many marriages back on track. Though they have nearly 60 full-time mental health professionals, they are run with the care, empathy and compassion of a small office. It is an honor to work with them and to be able to offer their support and care to the clients we serve.”
Ostroff continues: “The mission of DivorceDoneRight is to help parents achieve a Successful Divorce™ with less pain, less acrimony and less expense than is typical in a litigated divorce. DCPS will help us to educate couples about mediation, so families can work through the conflicts that are usually exacerbated by divorce litigation. As a result, parents can make decisions in a way that best serves their family's interests. ResolutionRepresentation™ is a resolution-oriented alternative for those couples that cannot agree to mediation. DivorceDoneRight will help to preserve harmony and peace between parents and their children while preserving financial resources for all of their futures.”
DivorceDoneRight's quest is to transform divorces and custody disputes from the stereotypical mess to a peaceful, resolution-oriented process. The goal at DivorceDoneRight is to help clients achieve a “Successful Divorce™” through mediation first. If a couple can't agree to mediation, then they can benefit from the company's newest innovation, “ResolutionRepresentation™.”
According to Ostroff, “The time to transform the divorce process is now.”
Ostroff analogizes: “It was only a few years ago that the financial industry went through a similar transformation. Brokers for high net worth individuals used to charge by the transaction, which led to churning and investments with high fees and commissions for their clients. Leading brokerage firms began to change things in an effort to align themselves with their clients. Instead of charging by the transaction, today they charge a percentage of the amount in the investment account. As a result, as the account value goes up, both the client and the broker benefit. We are seeking to revolutionize the divorce industry in a similar way. DivorceDoneRight wants to get our clients and lawyers on the same page, where lawyers grow their practices based on a reputation for helping their clients achieve a Successful Divorce™ rather than for facilitating and promoting contention.”
ResolutionRepresentation™ with the highly experienced Divorce Attorneys at DivorceDoneRight offers a refreshing new approach to divorce and custody litigation. While their goal is to protect clients and vigorously represent them, DivorceDoneRight Attorneys use their experience as mediators to take advantage of opportunities to resolve a client's divorce or custody conflict.
Ostroff adds: “Divorce lawyers often choose to focus on all of the ways they can 'wear out your spouse' or 'take them for everything they have.' The truth is, lawyers are the only winners in highly contested divorces. Our lawyers know that resolution is better for our clients than fighting. If spouses can resolve their differences and move on, it benefits them and their children.”
DivorceDoneRight has already grown at an impressive rate. Starting in 2006 with its headquarters in Plymouth Meeting, there are now 26 offices, including seven New Jersey offices, a Wilmington office, and offices north of the Delaware Valley in Bethlehem, the Poconos (Stroudsburg), and Scranton, as well as Pittsburgh. DivorceDoneRight has fourteen members that include experienced therapists and family attorneys averaging over 18 years as mediators. DivorceDoneRight will be opening new offices nationwide within the next year in the southwest, south and midwest.
