We created the Brief Crisis Therapy Institute to address that challenge.

What is a crisis?

There are many ways to define, interpret, and experience a crisis. Roberts (2000) defined a crisis as "a state of psychological disequilibrium caused by an event perceived as hazardous and an inability to use existing coping skills to resolve the issue.”

As professionals, how do you respond? How you set up your sessions with someone visibly in distress? It can be a challenge to build rapport, get the formal paperwork and consent to care covered when a client is in this state.

Many mental health professionals first meet clients when they are in crisis.

But what is a crisis? The same situation may be experienced differently by different people. For one person, what might be a minor stressor may be a trauma or a crisis for others.

[Brief Crisis Therapy Institute @BriefCrisisTx]

1) The individual has been exposed to/perceived a stressful or hazardous situation.

2) The individual’s perception of the event leads to considerable upset or disruptions.

3) The individual is unable to resolve the disruption with previously used coping mechanisms.

[Brief Crisis Therapy Institute @BriefCrisisTx]

Have you ever had a client walk into the room in a dysregulated state? They may be barely hanging on.

They did the hard part. They made it there! But as the therapist, you now set the stage.
