Popis:	Preparing female clinicians for the emotional and psychological demands of forensic work with violent and/or sexual offenders is imperative. Stereotypical gender scripts, such as the expectation that females must empathize with victims, result in stigmatization of female clinicians. Biases that women are less capable of handling such offenders contribute to increased difficulties within the field. Preparing female trainees for counter transferential issues, de-feminization, and the potential for vicarious traumatization will serve to help female clinicians continue to thrive in the field of forensic evaluation and treatment; thereby benefitting treatment and the field in general.
