This fifth edition of Dr. Kristi Kanel's A GUIDE TO CRISIS INTERVENTION covers the fundamentals of situational and developmental crises, how they occur, and how they have been managed since the 1940s. Kanel discusses traditional counseling models as they relate to crisis intervention, and shows how they have been incorporated into her model-the ABC Model of Crisis Intervention-that is used by both paraprofessionals and professionals. Presented in detail, the ABC Model of Crisis Intervention is ideal for use in any mental health setting and with any individual (from any population) in a crisis situation. The text provides detailed examples of specific crisis situations, including developmental crises, trauma crises, post traumatic stress disorder crises (PTSD), crises of personal victimization, substance abuse crises, and crises related to loss, terminal and serious illness, and disabilities. New chapters discuss veterans' issues; sexual assault and rape; and ethical, legal, and professional issues. The author also explores suicide assessment and the use of the Mental Status Exam. Every chapter offers case vignettes to aid students in practicing the skills presented in the ABC Model of Crisis Intervention.

Editorial Reviews

Review

"This is an awesome book! It provides a very clear and understandable overview of crises. [It is] very readable and applicable for students and new professionals."

"A well-written, in-depth book on crisis situations that addresses not only theory, but applications across many different populations who experience crises."

Great for 101

June 14, 2016

Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase

I am working on certification in crisis management, and this book is a commonly used one in 101 level classes.
It's comprehensive, clear and engaging, while never being too remedial. I am actually really surprised at how readable it is. I mean, it's hardly something you'd get for pleasure reading--but it is definitely interesting and the author balances a warm, conversational tone with some abstract, painful, and complicated topics.
I think there's much more that can be said on the necessity of cultural competency to triage, but I also get that the author cannot cover every single thing, and that can be a whole book in and of itself.

Easy, informative read

May 30, 2015

Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase

This book is well organized and easy to read. I am the director of a domestic/sexual violence crisis center, and we are using pieces of this book as the foundation for staff/volunteer foundational training. Some of the information like the cycle of domestic violence relationships is a little outdated, but the book is still good. (And we still teach the cycle as an option of what an abusive relationship MAY look like, just not as the Golden standard of all abusive relationships).

Great book for class

July 29, 2015

Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase

We had to read this for my class and I enjoyed this book. It helps you realize what to do and not to do when someone is going through a crisis. There are many kinds of Crises and this book will give you knowledge on them.

Functional, but not creative enough for me

June 18, 2017

Format: Kindle EditionVerified Purchase

The book is a good, functional guide to conventional approaches to trauma, but I wouldn't highly recommend it because it doesn't seem to promote out-of-the-box thinking or creativity. It does "the job," whatever that's supposed to mean here, but I didn't love the writing or ideas enough to want to delve further into it.

Eh...

Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase

A little disappointing. I was hopeful this book would have a little more depth but considering the nature of crisis intervention it may not really be a fault of the author. This review may be a result of expectations unmet.
