Summary:

"In this training video, ten experts elucidate the root causes of violent behavior from the perspective of violent offenders. They offer a probing look into the unsettling childhood experiences of violent offenders, examining the disturbed parent-child attachment styles, destructive thought processes, and distorted social perceptions that underlie violence. In addition to the expert commentary, riveting interviews with both incarcerated and rehabilitated offenders offer direct insight into the thinking that led to violent crimes. You will be able to describe the features of insecure attachment styles; understand the link between insecure attachment and violent behavior; explain the connection between violent and self-destructive behavior; and conceptualize the social perspective of violent offenders. Intended for students and practitioners in clinical psychology, counseling, social work, and related health professions." Supplied by publisher
