CognitiveBehavioral Strategies in Crisis Intervention

This invaluable practitioner guide and text shows how cognitivebehavioral interventions can help people weather situations of extreme stress and build needed skills for the future. Leading authorities describe effective, timeefficient approaches to managing different types of crises: those related to particular psychological problems, such as panic disorder, suicidal depression, and personality disorders; medical crises; child and family crises; and environmental and situational crises, including largescale traumatic events.
