| Summary: | A guide to crisis intervention, 6th Edition, covers the fundamentals of situational and developmental crises, how they occur and how they've been managed since the 1940s. Author Kristi Kanel discusses traditional counseling models as they relate to crisis intervention, and shows how they're incorporated into her model--the ABC Model of Crisis Intervention. Examples of specific crisis situations illuminate developmental crises, trauma crises, post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) crises and crises of personal victimization. Students get practical guidance on handling veterans' issues, sexual assault and rape and ethical, legal and professional issues, among others. They also learn how to conduct suicide assessments and mental status exams.
