Outpatient treatment of the aggressive offender.
The treatment of aggression in an outpatient setting has not been tried often mainly because of the nature and intensity of the countertransference reactions. However, with some modification of traditional treatment practices plus a careful monitoring of the countertransference successful treatment is possible without great danger to the therapist.
