Hybrid Model of Crisis
Introduction
A crisis is said to be difficult to cope with, and it comes from a past or present event an individual may be dealing with. This can cause the individual to lose focus on life, depression, and intolerable difficulty wanting to do anything. An individual will have difficulty completing present and future goals if they do not have the right resources and support to assist them with moving on. This paper will demonstrate how Human services professionals use Hybrid model of crisis intervention to help lead their client in the right positive direction. Human service professionals should explain, lead, and direct the client. This will help to bring the clients defense down which will allow them to trust as well as explaining to the client what is going on. In this paper it will provide details about Hybrid Model, how it is illustrated, and what listening skills where applied by the counselor.
Description of Hybrid Model The hybrid model of crisis intervention is implemented using a series of tasks that work together in deescalating a crisis situation. The first task of this particular model is to appeal to the client in a way that would promote their cooperation in preventing their situation from going from bad to worse and includes three courses of action, predisposition, engage, initiate contact in which the client should be informed of what the workers intentions are. Problem exploration is the second task in which the worker defines the crisis. When attempting to define the crisis, workers may find it difficult to see the problem in the same way as the client does, however this should not lead them to search too far in to the clients history for the answers but rather the occurrence’s that led to the crisis. Most people who are experiencing a crisis feel alone and as if nobody cares and it
