Planning for change: an alternative to treatment planning with sexual offenders.
This article describes how a change plan can be helpful in defining intervention goals and objectives. The change-plan concept derives from lifestyle theory and deviates from the traditional treatment plan in its delineation of roles, point of focus, and attention to process. A case example is used to illustrate how the change plan can be implemented with sexually offending clients. Several potential limitations of the change-plan concept are also discussed.
