Cognitive analytic therapy (CAT) is an established form of
integrated psychotherapy, which has been applied in a variety of
clinical settings to a diversity of disorders with promising
outcomes. In "Cognitive Analytic Therapy for Offenders," the
authors describe the application of CAT to forensic settings,
illustrating the use of this type of therapy with a range of
offence types and clinical disorders.
CAT is presented as a new form of forensic psychotherapy which can
enhance the understanding, conceptualization, treatment and
management of offenders. The book offers a novel description of
clinical practice and describes the innovative application of
cognitive analytic therapy to forensic work in a variety of
contexts and settings for numerous offence types and clinical
disorders, including:
- CAT in the treatment of child sex offenders in secure forensic
settings
- The use of CAT with women in secure settings
- CAT for parents within prisons
- CAT for borderline and psychopathic personality disorder
- CAT for a stalking offender
- Community-based CAT with perpetrators of domestic violence
- CAT for homicide perpetrators (rage-type, serial sexual,
dissociative homicides)
- The application of CAT for Court reporting and managing boundary
violations
This book provides an account of a fresh, new approach to
conceptualization and treatment in forensic psychotherapy, and
offers the first description of CAT presented in the form of a
compilation of illustrations of practice. It will be essential
reading for clinical psychologists and psychiatrists, occupational
therapists, and anyone who works within services for offenders.
