Psychotherapeutischer Umgang mit Krisen

Psychotherapeutic interventions play a crucial role in alleviating psychological distress and promoting resilience during personal and global crises.

What general principles are relevant for psychotherapeutic crisis interventions in acute psychiatry? What contributes to an in-depth understanding of individual reactions to the course of crises? When do global crises translate into personal crises? How can global crises be integrated into the psychotherapeutic process?

Selected results from the scientific literature on psychiatric psychotherapeutic crisis interventions in acute psychiatry are reviewed and summarized.

Although the evidence for specific crisis intervention strategies in acute psychiatry is limited, general principles for psychotherapeutic crisis interventions can be derived.

Understanding early relational experiences based on psychodynamic or learning theory processes influences the application of further crisis intervention techniques and their impact on affected individuals.
