Notes:	How would a good lives model of sex offender treatment differ from a risk-need model? In the good lives model, risk factors are viewed as obstacles that erode individuals’ capacities to live more fulfilling lives. The therapeutic focus is thus on implementing offenders’ good lives plans rather than simply managing risk. To develop our argument, we first outline the risk-need approach and briefly comment on its core assumptions. We then present the good lives model and discuss the clinical utility of an integrated approach by way of a case example.
