Forensic psychotherapy is a talking cure that aims to work with meaning-making processes and defensive manoeuvres in offenders, in order to make them progress in their search for the meaning of the offence. An offence can be understood and contextualised once it is considered from the perspective of the life history of the offender. At the same time, the question of where the violent or sexual motives come from is much more difficult to grasp. This paradox is problematic to society that wants an answer from the criminal, but it is also problematic to the criminal him- or herself. |
