Abstract
This paper is based on experience working with criminal men, a population of whom it is said, with some justification, that ‘nothing works’ (Newbold, 2008, p. 385). Yet over and over, we see people change, and we wonder what makes this happen. The conclusions presented here are based on over three decades of group and individual psychotherapy in prison, in a therapeutic community, and in a community-based Stopping Violence programme.
