“…One study explored person's experiences with a strength‐based crisis intervention service in which crisis management workers collaborate with the client to determine the key life area(s) to focus on for improvement, so they are able to live at their optimal level of independence while utilizing community supports appropriately (Hootz et al ). Persons' experiences were generally positive, with participants identifying that they appreciated the support from staff and were learning steps to attain new skills and increasing their independence, both on a personal and financial level (Hootz et al ). Another study explored the perception of persons accessing telephone‐based mental health triage services in Australia (Sands et al ).…”

There exists a growing need for health and service providers to respond to persons in a manner that recognizes the prevalence and impact of trauma in individuals and prevent inadvertent re-traumatization in the routine process of care. The experience of mental health crisis in of itself can have traumatic and impactful effects on individuals. Trauma-informed approaches to care offer a framework to provide crisis intervention responses that are based on the acknowledgement of the prevalence and impact of trauma and define trauma not by the event per se, but by the impact of an experience of trauma. The integration of trauma-informed principles in the context of crisis intervention is a current practice gap. In order to inform a portion of a bestpractice guideline for registered nurses and the interprofessional team, a systematic literature review was conducted to primarily identify nursing interventions within four weeks of a mental health crisis, with a secondary focus on identifying particular interventions that included traumainformed principles. The systematic review yielded 21 quantitative and qualitative studies related to nursing interventions for mental health crisis, 10 of which referred to one or more principles of trauma-informed approaches. There was a lack of studies on nursing interventions explicitly linked to implementation of trauma-informed principles, highlighting future research needs and focused efforts to integrate trauma-informed principles into crisis intervention practices.

“…An initial conversation during acute crisis psychotherapy typically begins with “How can I help?” and continues with empathic listening and exploration of the patient’s feelings. While listening, it is helpful to emphasize the patient’s strengths 37 and focus on the “Why now?” The precipitant of John’s crisis was his fear of his wife Amy’s admission and potential death and his immediate need for childcare. Two-days after contacting the hotline, he began virtual crisis psychotherapy.…”

Crisis intervention psychotherapy (CIP) is an underutilized form of therapy that can be offered as a treatment during psychiatric disasters and emergencies, and it may be especially useful during the age of Coronavirus Disease 2019 . CIP is a problem-solving, solution-focused, trauma-informed treatment, utilizing an individual or systemic/familycentered approach. CIP is a brief form of psychotherapy delivered as a companion or followup to psychological first aid. Crisis psychotherapy is designed to resolve a crisis and restore daily functioning. CIP can be adapted as a single session for a COVID-19 mental health emergency or for a hotline or as 2 to 20 sessions of treatment with COVID-19 patients and families offered virtually on a psychiatric inpatient unit, through a consultation-liaison service, or in outpatient settings. This article reviews the history of critical incident stress management and the use of its replacement, psychological first aid. The history and core principles of crisis psychotherapy and 8 core elements of treatment are described. The use of digital and virtual technology has enabled the delivery of crisis psychotherapy during the COVID-19 pandemic. A case study of a family impacted by COVID-19 is reported as an illustration. The use of a 6-week timeline, an ecological map, and a problem-solving wheel-and-spoke treatment plan are demonstrated.

“…Worldwide various services provide outpatient crisis support, such as crisis management services, crisis assessment and treatment services or crisis resolution home treatment teams [10][11][12]. Considerable differences among these services exist in terms of what they offer (telephone services and/or mobile crisis teams providing home treatment), their accessibility (24/7 or defined opening hours), the cooperation with other institutions (hospitals, fire department, etc.…”

Introduction A crisis can be described as subjective experience that threatens and overwhelms a person’s ability to handle a specific situation. In dealing with crises some people are looking for support from professionals. The “professional relationship” between people experiencing a crisis and professionals plays an important role in the successful management of a crisis which has been widely researched in many contexts. However, regarding outpatient services (e. g. crisis resolution home treatment teams), yet empirical evidence remains limited. Objective We aim to explore descriptions of supportive professional relationships during outpatient crisis interventions in empirical literature. Accordingly, a scoping review was conducted to identify types of evidence, map the key concepts, and point out research gaps. Methods MEDLINE, PsycINFO, CINAHL and Social Science Citation Index were searched for studies reporting empirical data on the professional relationship between people experiencing a crisis (18+) and professionals (e. g. social workers, psychiatrists) during a crisis intervention, defined as a short-term, face-to-face, low threshold, time-limited, outpatient, and voluntary intervention to cope with crises. Studies were excluded if they were published before 2007, in languages other than English and German, and if they couldn’t be accessed. Included studies were summarized, compared, and synthesized using qualitative content analyses. Results 3.741 records were identified, of which 8 met the eligibility criteria. Only one study directly focused on the relationship; the others addressed varied aspects. Two studies explored the perspectives of service users, five focused on those of the professionals and one study examined both. The empirical literature was categorized into three main themes: strategies used to develop a supportive professional relationship, factors influencing the relationship and the nature of these relationships. Discussion The results reveal a gap in understanding the nature of supportive professional relationships from the service users’ perspective, as well as how professionals construct these relationships.
