So the point of clinical psychology services in the prisons...
Well, I imagine that really it is not a client-facing role.
I mean, I know how Janita Ryan rolls... How she used to roll, anyway... She rolls like this 'if I can't help you nobody is allowed. if you don't stay that I am helping you and sing my praises about how helpful I am then i will write up that i recommend that you be cut from the services entirely for your own good because the only help that we will offer to you is making you worse'.
So she can write that up for all of the prison population. The only help that we will offer you is making you worse. Therefore you are better off without our help. Therefore the money we get for helping you we can spend on other things. Like my own personal salary as CE. And, additionally, we can tell the UN that we are employing cliniical psychologists (in non-client facing roles) to write psychology reports and recommendations for treatment plans and we are adhering to the treatment plans.
Here is the treatment plan: I recommend no treatment because any treatment will make them worse. Aren't they lucky that there is no treatment.
Do you want treatment?
Do you want treatment???
Are you really really really really sure??? Sure about that??
ECT?
What kind of treatment would you like?
A little 'low stimulus environment' (with no natural light for months on end)
What kind of psycshology treatment would you like?
___
Additionally there is the issue of recruitment. Organisational psychology if you will.
Psychology personality screening tests etc for the employees ofhte prisons.
Step one:
Fail anybody for hte psych screening who hasn't paid some kind of bribe or whatever in order to access the answers to the test.
ANd in that way they can ensure that people who have 'brought in' to a corrupt system are allowed on staff.
As prison guards or whtaever.
So then they can learn about how the drug shipments roll. How most if not all of the prison population are innocent of othe crimes it was convenient for the judiciary to convict them of.
Etc.
That seems to be the thing of it.
