Crisis Intervention: Building Resilience in Troubled Times

Abstract

Reviews the book Crisis Intervention: Building Resilience in Troubled Times (2018) by L. G. Echterling, J. H. Presbury, & J. Edson McKee. This book provides a comprehensive and empowering view of crisis intervention – including suicidal crisis intervention – for practitioners and students hoping to expand their skills and knowledge in these important areas. The language and flexibility of this book make it applicable across multiple practice domains. This book could serve as an effective resource for health professionals, social workers, emergency service personnel, and more. One of the book’s biggest feats is its optimistic and empowering view of crisis that hints at aspects of recovery. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2020 APA, all rights reserved)
