Nearly 15% of the US population has been diagnosed with a chronic medical condition. These patients - and their families - confront serious psychosocial challenges as they face living with a lasting medical illness. This is where medical crisis counseling (MCC) steps in. MCC is short-term intervention (1-10 sessions) that focuses on three critical, interacting areas in the patient's life: the disease, the emotional response, and the family's response. Four assumptions lie at the heart of MCC: The medical condition is the focus; medical crises are temporary and offer opportunities for learning; the adjustment issues faced by people with illness can be predicted; and people have strengths that help them identify and realize concrete goals. This book describes the MCC model and richly illustrates its therapeutic objectives and intervention techniques for each of the eight "expectable" issues of chronic illness: control, self-image, dependency, stigma, abandonment, anger, isolation, and death. Via numerous case examples, the impact of chronic illness on the patient's family members is described and methods are offered to promote better communication and adjustment around the medical problem.

Psychological Crisis Intervention: The SAFER-R Model is designed to provide the reader with a simple set of guidelines for the provision of psychological first aid (PFA). The model of psychological first aid (PFA) for individuals presented in this volume is the SAFER-R model developed by the authors. Arguably it is the most widely used tactical model of crisis intervention in the world with roughly 1 million individuals trained in its operational and derivative guidelines. This model of PFA is not a therapy model nor a substitute for therapy. Rather it is designed to help crisis interventionists stabile and mitigate acute crisis reactions in individuals, as opposed to groups. Guidelines for triage and referrals are also provided. Before plunging into the step-by-step guidelines, a brief history and terminological framework is provided. Lastly, recommendations for addressing specific psychological challenges (suicidal ideation, resistance to seeking professional psychological support, and depression) are provided.

This book discusses how human beings cope with serious physical ill ness and injury. A conceptual model for understanding the process of coping with the crisis of illness is provided, and basic adaptive tasks and types of coping skills are identified. The major portion of the book is organized around various types of physical illness. These physical illnesses, which almost all people face either in themselves or their family members, raise common relevant coping issues. The last few sections cover "the crisis of treatment," emphasizing the importance of unusual hospital environments and radical new medical treatments, of stresses on professional staff, and of issues related to death and the fear of dying. The material highlights the fact that people can successfully cope with life crises such as major ill ness and inj ury, rather than the fact that severe symptoms and/or breakdowns sometimes occur. The importance of support from professional care-givers, such as physicians, nurses, and social workers, and from family, friends, and other sources of help in the community, is emphasized. Many of the selections include case examples which serve to illustrate the material. Coping with Physical Illness has been broadly conceived to meet the needs of a diverse audience. There is substantial information about how human beings cope with illness and physical disability, but this material has never been collected in one place.
