Stress and Crisis Intervention
Based on your personal epistemology and current literature on trauma, crisis intervention and family stress management, develop your own integrated model of trauma, family crisis intervention and family stress management related to a specific stressor (i.e. poverty induced stress on children). This model must clearly demonstrate your own synthesis of theoretical material into a workable clinical paradigm.
Each student will author an 8 page paper articulating his or her trauma, stress/change model. This paper should adhere to APA requirements. Accurate references from original sources will be expected. The paper will address the following areas:
1.Integration of review of literature on stress and a specific stressor with student?s own thinking of a model of crisis intervention. This should be a creative endeavor, with solid background information.
2.How do you understand the concept of stress from a systemic1 point of view? What is your systemic conceptualization of trauma, stress and crisis? Discuss in detail your view of how trauma, stress and crisis play into 1st and 2nd order change processes?
3.Describe your view of the coping process (both individual and systemic). Include some of the basic ingredients of the coping process (i.e. family typology, family resilience, systemic resources, problem solving abilities etc). How would you describe the phases of the coping process (beginning with the stressful event and ending with some resolution phase)? It may help to draw this out in model format.
4.Describe your view of the stages (process) of working with families who enter therapy in crisis. What will be important for you to notice as you assess the individual or family? Will you use evaluation/assessment tools?and if so, which ones? What is your overall goal in your work with the family (i.e. to return them to a pre-crisis state? To utilize the stressful event to promote development of individual/family? Something else?).
5.What are the 5 ? 10 most common interventions you will use in your stress and family crisis model of family therapy? (Examples may include relaxation training, problem solving skills, communication skills training, teambuilding etc.). Describe each one and when they would be most appropriate, and when they should be avoided.
