134 Conclusion As can be seen in the case of Lauren creating a therapeutic group climate and personalised treatment in a secure forensic setting is an ongoing challenge. Sociotherapists are assumed to be able to be sensitive to the balance between therapy and security at the intersection of forensic care, psychiatry and care for individuals with intellectual disabilities. Group climate must be attuned to the specific characteristics, needs, learning style of individuals with MID-BIF, mental disorders and risky behaviour, while at the same time risks and safety must be monitored. Working with high context-dependent clients in a complex and vulnerable context underlines the complex task assignment of sociotherapists in forensic care for clients with MID-BIF. This requires continuous maintenance.
