Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Crisis intervention is a short-term and intensive therapeutic approach that is designed to help individuals who are at high risk for suicide, have made suicide attempts or have expressed suicidal ideation. Its primary aim is to alleviate acute distress and stressors, and to help clients mobilize their own resources and support networks to resolve the crisis and prevent self-harm.
