Crisis intervention and social work models

R A Porter. Community Ment Health J. 1966 Mar.

Abstract

Crisis theory is discussed in relation to a mental health consultation project with visiting teachers. Case illustrations of preventive intervention are offered, and characteristics of cases which best lend themselves to this type of intervention are delineated. The adaptability of the supervisory model in social work to the consultation task is demonstrated. Caplan's theory of the theme interference type of consultee-centered case consultation is illustrated in the visiting teacher project.
