Synopsis:

Now in a revised and expanded third edition, this popular work combines the latest scientific knowledge with practical strategies for intervening in a broad range of crisis situations.

Leading authorities describe effective procedures for working with crisis-prone clinical populations as well as persons struggling with situational crises and stressful life experiences. The third edition has been restructured and thoroughly updated with the latest empirical data and clinical approaches.

Six new chapters address clinical decision making; treating law enforcement personnel; traumatic stress syndromes; and working with chronic pain sufferers, aggressive youths, and victims of terrorism. In-depth case examples in every chapter enhance the book's utility for clinicians and students.
