Book excerpt: Comprehensive instruction in this important method From Pearl Harbor to the events of September 11, 2001, to the ravages of Hurricane Katrina, tragedy can leave indelible scars. Its many forms are now visibly present in our local, national, and international communities. Intervention, as a clinical technique to combat the debilitating effects of stress that accompany crisis, is quickly becoming a social movement. Crisis Counseling and Therapy provides comprehensive instruction in this important and rapidly burgeoning field with a systemic three-phase method that is simple and practical. This innovative model can easily be incorporated into the clinician’s practice to provide effective, strategic intervention. Crisis Counseling and Therapy recognizes that no single theory or strategy will prove useful in all situations and so offers students and professionals an adaptable approach to dealing with any crisis they may confront. By integrating four proven theories—narrative, cognitive-behavioral, family systems, and experiential/existential—and using the degree of disequilibrium experienced in the system to determine therapy sessions, this unique text presents a new approach to crisis work. In-depth, contemporary case studies and an easily-learned and -implemented model of application allow for multidisciplinary approaches to treatment and more positive, constructive outcomes. Topics covered in Crisis Counseling and Therapy include: definitions of crisis critical moments of development characteristics of the crisis counselor contemporary standards and models of practice models for intervention assessment models models of treatment justification for a new model of treatment—restoration of functioning integrating the four unique approaches profile of an individual in crisis the systemic crisis intervention model the model’s three phases: Remember, Reorganize, Restore integrating the stress of crisis and many more! A vital text, reference, and resource manual, Crisis Counseling and Therapy is ideal for students and established professionals as well as clinicians and specialists working in the fields of psychiatry, psychology, social work, nursing, organ donor procurement, first responder personnel, ministry, emergency medicine, and managed care who are seeking continuing education.

Book excerpt: Featuring new chapters on bullying, sexual assault, natural disasters, eating disorders, and cultural considerations, the second edition of this highly popular Handbook provides a one-stop reference for mental health professionals who face a bewildering variety of school-based crises. Key features include a focus on both prevention and intervention and ongoing discussions of the research that underlies best practice. Like the first edition, chapters follow a parallel structure that includes: *the incidence, prevalence, and impact of the crisis; *theories regarding precipitating factors; *discussion of who is at risk for encountering the crisis; *primary prevention activities; *methods of working with high-risk clients; *developmentally-appropriate methods and intervention activities for individuals; and *developmentally-appropriate methods and activities for groups. The result is an unusually coherent volume that is suitable for graduate work in school psychology, school counseling, school social work, and school nursing, or as a reference work for in-service practitioners.

Book excerpt: Core text for crisis intervention courses in Counseling, Social Work, and Clinical Psychology. Here is how some reviewers have described the text. This text presents a compelling argument that victims of crisis and trauma can recover and grow into strong and healthy survivors. The text's emphasis on resilience is an important next step in the evolution of this helping technique. Its detailed explanation of the techniques that utilize the strength of survivors is valuable for neophytes and experienced helpers alike. The exercises and discussion questions presented move it from a theory based text into a valuable tool for skill development. This text is a very valuable addition to the literature on crisis intervention. Thomas W. Rueth, Universityof Dayton The writing is excellent and well thought out. The ideas are presented clearly, the stories used in each chapter are excellent, and the authors do an excellent job integrating their stories with the content of each chapter. Chris McCarthy, Universityof Texasat Austin Crisis Intervention!stands out as a cutting edge text among books on crisis intervention. and current. Clearly, the art and science of crisis intervention is conveyed through the use of research, story, literature exemplars, activities, and practical approaches. Nicholas Mazza, FloridaStateUniversity

Book excerpt: Nearly 15% of the US population has been diagnosed with a chronic medical condition. These patients - and their families - confront serious psychosocial challenges as they face living with a lasting medical illness. This is where medical crisis counseling (MCC) steps in. MCC is short-term intervention (1-10 sessions) that focuses on three critical, interacting areas in the patient's life: the disease, the emotional response, and the family's response. Four assumptions lie at the heart of MCC: The medical condition is the focus; medical crises are temporary and offer opportunities for learning; the adjustment issues faced by people with illness can be predicted; and people have strengths that help them identify and realize concrete goals. This book describes the MCC model and richly illustrates its therapeutic objectives and intervention techniques for each of the eight "expectable" issues of chronic illness: control, self-image, dependency, stigma, abandonment, anger, isolation, and death. Via numerous case examples, the impact of chronic illness on the patient's family members is described and methods are offered to promote better communication and adjustment around the medical problem.

This book was released on 2013-03-05 with total page 410 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the first edition was published in 1988, the role of crisis intervention and prevention has become central to mental health professionals working in the schools. Disasters such as hurricane Katrina, terrorist attacks both in this country and around the world, and various school shootings have greatly increased school crisis research and policy development. This book is designed for an introductory graduate course taken by students in school psychology, school counseling, and school social work. Section I provides a crisis response overview, section II deals with crises for children and adolescents and section III covers crises that manifest in adolescence. Discussions of the 16 most prevalent types of crises are covered in sections II and III and include their characteristics, causes, interventions, and preventive programs. All chapters will be updated, six heavily revised or totally rewritten by new authors, and two new chapters (chapters 8 & 19) have been added.
