Why is it important?
We hope that this can be a useful source for anybody who wishes to utilize this model of counselling. While only a single trial has been conducted so far, the results are promising.
Perspectives
We hope that in addition, these examples can clarify how people with mild to moderate levels of antisocial behavior can actually engage themselves in counselling, and that this can contribute to the dismantling of the widespread treatment pessimism that still exists regarding patients with this diagnosis, regardless of severity.
