Forensic Rehabilitation Psychiatry

Forensic Rehabilitation Psychiatry combines mental health treatment with legal considerations. It focuses on helping individuals with mental illnesses who have been involved in the criminal justice system. This field aims to assess and treat their psychological difficulties while also addressing behaviors that may have led to legal issues. By providing tailored rehabilitation programs, psychologists and psychiatrists work to improve their mental health, enhance coping skills, and reduce the risk of re-offending, thereby supporting their reintegration into society. This approach ensures that individuals receive the psychiatric care they need within a legal framework.
