Crisis intervention is a short-term, immediate response to a person experiencing a crisis. This process aims to help individuals regain their equilibrium and cope with overwhelming emotions or situations. Trained professionals, such as counselors or social workers, often use techniques to provide support, assess the situation, and develop a plan for moving forward. During a crisis, individuals may feel lost or unable to cope, making it essential to have access to resources and support. Crisis intervention can involve various methods, including active listening, problem-solving, and connecting individuals to services like mental health support or community resources.
