| Description: |
This book takes a new and innovative approach to looking at the commonalities and disparities between counselling/psychotherapy and forensic psychology. It aims to develop a critical understanding of the themes and issues related to crime and therapy that are highly relevant to theory and practice, yet are often ignored or neglected. |
| Synopsis: |
A cutting-edge text that provides a comprehensive introduction to mental health problems and criminal behaviour, this book explores the link between mental health and criminality and considers the most common and effective therapeutic approaches for working with offenders and victims of crime. * Part 1 explores the predominant tensions between forensic and therapeutic agendas;* Part 2 considers how criminal and `insane' identities and careers may be considered gendered, classed, culturally and age-dependent experiences, and be related to power and oppression;* Part 3 examines issues around sex and sexuality in forensic and therapeutic settings;* Part 4 introduces a range of therapeutic approaches for working with offenders and victims of crime;* Part 5 covers forensic and therapeutic practices, including programmes for the prevention of both mental health issues and offending.Edited by an expert team from the Open University and written by a broad range of contributors, this book draws on a wealth of experience in this popular subject area. It will be a key text for students of forensic psychology, counselling and psychotherapy, and for health and social care professionals working in therapeutic and forensic settings. |
