5 Stars Simple and understandable
This a great book for any student in the counseling field or for people who work with people who are in crisis. Kanel’s book is very readable and provides an excellent framework for helping during a crisis. She provides excellent case examples (what to say and what not to say) and her ABC model for crisis intervention is a great model to assess and address crisis states in people.

This is an excellent book . I would highly reccommend this book to anyone wanting to understand counseling others. This is a college textbook, however it is very easy to ubderstand. It is reaslly interesting reading even if you are not a college student. The services from amazon.com are great.

Also the college was out of the book but amazon.com had it and i was able to get it in a couple of days.The book title is Crisis Intervention
5 Stars Excellent, comprehensive book on Crisis Intervention!
I have been in the field for twenty years. Asked to teach a course to students at a nearby university, I ordered this book!
I find that it is very readable and interesting and very much like the work I have been doing for the last two decades! Students will learn first hand information of what makes up crisis work, and become familiar with the many facets of crisis work. Down to earth writing and very real case scenarios! Excellent resource!
