Special Section: Psychoanalytic and Group-Analytic Perspectives in Forensic Psychotherapy

Klaus Hoffmann

Reichenau Mental Hospital and Institute of Psychoanalysis Zurich-Kreuzlingen, Germany k.hoffmann{at}zfp-reichenau.de

Tilman Kluttig

Reichenau Mental Hospital

The emphasis on empirically-founded forensic treatments puts psychoanalytic approaches in a defensive position. This article shows how essential individual and group-analytic findings are in psychotherapy with mentally ill offenders. These findings are often used by behavioural therapists to present their programs in realistic situations. The experiences of the psychotherapy ward in Reichenau Mental Hospital exemplify these findings.

Key Words: forensic psychotherapy • group analysis • therapeutic communities • psychotherapy research • in-patient psychotherapy
