Under Pressure: Crisis Management (Suicide Prevention)

 

CLICK HERE TO VIEW SNEAK PEEK

Dive into a practical and well-organized way of understanding and dealing with crises. You will learn to implement short-term solutions in places like psychiatric clinics, community mental health centers, counseling centers, or crisis intervention settings. We'll be using Roberts' seven-stage crisis intervention model to guide us. This model helps clinicians quickly figure out what's going on with the client, work together to set goals, explore different coping strategies, build a good relationship, and focus on the client's strengths.

Abstract

This course explores a systematic and structured conceptual model for crisis assessment and intervention that facilitates planning for effective brief treatment in outpatient psychiatric clinics, community mental health centers, counseling centers, or crisis intervention settings. Application of Roberts' seven-stage crisis intervention model can facilitate the clinician's effective intervening by emphasizing rapid assessment of the client's problem and resources, collaborating on goal selection and attainment, finding alternative coping methods, developing a working alliance, and building upon the client's strengths. This course clarifies the distinct differences between disaster management and crisis intervention and when each is critically needed.

This workshop will address many core skills pertinent to suicide prevention.
