Re-parenting
Re-parenting
Re-parenting methods are a subtext of both Attachment Therapy and Therapeutic Parenting. And many
practitioners treat a criminal of any age as an infant. The therapist becomes the patient's surrogate
parent to make up for the terrible job her real parents did. They provide emotional support, love and
care to the wounded inner child of a criminal.
Limits of re-parenting
At the same time Inner child support and reparenting has its own limits, for one hour the surrogate
parent will provide the support but like father/mother has to go for their jobs and daily chores, a
clinician "Terminate of session".
Through this reparenting the traumatic and abusive experiences of childhood are corrected and this
phenomenon is called Corrective emotional experiences.
Formulation vs Interpretation
It is not necessary from clinician's side to interpret the all issues of transference, counter transference,
dreams and then discuss with the client rather some time many individuals do not posses enough
intelligence, education and aptitude to understand the interpretations. So, clinician bears the
responsibility to understand the interpretations and situation then use common sense to formulate the
therapeutic process accordingly.
Point to remember! Assessment and therapeutic process work in continuum. While drawing house,
tree or person the discussions that take place, results in transference/counter transference and then real
therapeutic relationship emerges.
Jungina Therapeutic Model
It should be noted that diverse mixtures of components of various models can be found in forensic
settings, and sometimes such mixtures or admixtures are called "multimodal" programs, like assessment
is being made by estimating the ego strengths and at the same time archetype constellation is being
measured (which archetype is dominant in personality).
Jungian Analysis
Is done with the help of followings:
Examining archetypal constellations
Personality types Extrovert-Introvert
Assessing Functions
Sensation
Feeling

Intuition
Archetypal Constellations
Archetypal dominance is assessed, and if it is found that shadow is dominant, help from hero is sought
and appeal is made to that archetype. In some cases Hero archetype is dominant (very self less and
fighting for societal causes. Robin Hood is a perfect example for Hero archetype) in this situation the
persona archetype is developed to make a non violent personality.
Personality Typologies
A clinician using Jungian approach may also take into consideration the personality type of the person.
And then treatment targets are set accordingly.
Active Imagination
This method is based on that we all talk to ourselves, but we sometimes do that as part of a negative
cycle of worry, blame, or guilt. Active imagination personifies the "parts" of us that are talking -- with
the presupposition of creating more clarity or even resolution that might not be possible in real situation.
Anything might stimulate active imagination. You might be seeking clarity on a key decision, or you
might be puzzled by an emotional reaction you've had about a dream. While using to treat offenders,
they are asking to actively imagine the situation that triggers disturbance and then solve problem in
imagination.
Art Therapy
Carl Jung introduced the process of drawing or art making in his treatments. According to the American
Art Therapy Association, art therapy is based on the belief that the creative process involved in making
art is on a basic level healing and life-enhancing. Art can be used to assess the crimnogenic personality
along with many other techniques. Like if a person draws lines by gravely pressing the paper, it
indicated his intense feelings and anger. On contrary side if a person draws very light almost invisible
lines, it shows low self esteem. For instance I asked a client to draw her favorite animal. She drew a lion
I could not found any kind of lion in that drawing rather it was a picture of human body on limbs and
complete human features. Then after probing her it was explored that she had inability to express anger.
As discussed earlier unexpressed anger can built rage and can erupt like a volcano .it is essential to
express anger in nice way. After wards she was given treatment with emphasis on how to express
anger in suitable way.
Use and selection of different colours used in drawings can also help in understanding psychological
states.
