I’m a true believer of the impact that thoughts have. I know that the way that a person thinks about things has a huge influence on how they see the world around them. Cognitive Behavioral therapy can actually work for some criminals but not all. If the person has a problem such as antisocial personalty disorder or they do not see what is wrong with what they are doing, there will be no progress.
Maybe it can be challenged, just maybe cognitive therapy can alter the brain patterns slightly.
I think Cognitive Behavioral Therapy can be very beneficial. I believe changing someone’s perceptions about something is a great start to diminishing the number of individuals who reoffend and end up back in prison. I think that there is no one answer to reducing the number of people who go back to jail, but I think Cognitive Behavorial Therapy looks promising.
