Prisons are not ideal environments in which to practice
psychotherapy, but they are places in which it is urgently needed.
Unfortunately, too many people do not understand either the needor
what therapy can offerand ignorance is a powerful enemy of
practice. The Prison Service has the difficult task of attempting
to ensure that all needs can be catered for. Its most intractable
problem is with those at the extreme end of the difficult,
dangerous and disruptive spectrum, whose treatment cannot solely be
a matter of control. These are the prisoners whose treatment and
needs are described in this book.Psychotherapy should not be seen
as antithetical to the ethos of a prison it is important that
prison staff understand therapists, and vice versa. The value of
Life Within Hidden Worlds is that it helps to fill the gap by
explaining, simply yet graphically, the challenges that face
therapists.Sir David Ramsbotham, HM Chief Inspector of Prisons,
from his Foreword.
