Designed to provide students and criminal justice workers with a practical preparation for interfacing with offenders, Counselling Criminal Justice Offenders recognizes that individuals who counsel offenders in the criminal justice system often have not had the extensive training of a licensed psychologist. This book is intended for anyone who finds himself/herself counseling offenders on the front lines as a result of employment in the criminal justice system. It is designed to give students and criminal justice workers an understanding of the criminal justice offender and his/her problems, the counseling process including laws criminal justice counselors must know, proven modalities that have stood the tes of time in American corrections, and appropriate and effective counselor attitudes. -- from back cover
