Description: The book presents a successful general crisis response model for intervention. Using real-life case examples and exercises to develop techniques for building verbal and nonverbal skills, the authors encourage therapists to help clients cope by focusing on clients' inner strengths rather than on pathologies that need to be fixed. The authors' down-to-earth approach to this topic will appeal to crisis intervention professionals, teachers, students, and volunteer workers.
