Abstract

This study reviewed theoretical models of sex offender treatment program and its treatment components as well as significant factors that might affect therapy process. The purpose of theoretical review was to establish main principles and directions through which the Korean sex offender treatment programs can be improved and advanced. We reviewed the three main theoretical models for treating sex offenders: Relapse Prevention Model; Risk, Needs, Responsivity Model; Good Lives Model. Then we reviewed treatment components of sex offender group therapy, which was decreasing cognitive distortions and deviant sexual arousal that sex offenders have and increasing their victim empathy and socio-affective functioning and enforcing relapse prevention. Regarding the factors that affect therapy process we addressed characteristics of therapist and client, and therapeutic climate and approach. Lastly, based on the review made here, we derived two major principles that Korean sex offender treatment programs should pay attention to: considering Risk and Responsivity in administering sex offender treatment program; enforcing the motivation of sex offenders to participate in therapy and emphasizing the strength of sex offenders rather than their deficits.
