Overview

What is the best course of action for treating denial in sexual offenders and how does denial affect recidivism?

Summary

Addressing denial in treatment is a topic that comes up more in family court cases or probation violations than it does in sentencing issues.  A client on probation may be violated by probation due to “failing” out of treatment.  One way a client can do this is by not acknowledging their offense.  In family court, individuals with a founded case are often required to attend treatment regardless of legal outcome and even if they maintain their innocence in the accusation.
