Empire State Forensics is known for delivering quality, empirically-based evaluation, treatment, and consultation.

Our treatment philosophy adheres to the Good Lives Model as well as the Risk-Need-Responsivity treatment program framework.

The Good Lives Model (GLM) focuses on helping each client understand his pathway to offending; learn to manage his problematic behavior; and live a harm-free, “good” life  through attaining healthy life goals that are subsumed in their individualized values.

The Risk-Needs-Responsivity (RNR) approach helps guide our staff in decision making related to the amount of treatment recommended, the type of treatment plan that will help the most, and the treatment approach that will be most effective for each individual.
