Church-Based Collaboration: Assessing Needs and Evaluating Programs in the Ministry Setting
February 3, 2012
Many congregations are seeing the importance of Christ-centered counseling services. However, Christian mental health professionals have many other skills that can be put at the service of the Church, including consultation, research, and assessment. "Church Consultation" encourages the traditional counseling services, while also casting a bigger vision for the various ways psychology, including the research skills of psychologists, can be used to serve the church.
CISM Individual Crisis Intervention & Peer Support and Group Crisis Intervention – Combo Course
This 3-day course combines all of the content of the International Critical Incident Stress Foundation's Individual Crisis Intervention & Peer Support and Group Crisis Intervention courses. Crisis Intervention and Critical Incident Stress Management (CISM) are NOT intended to be psychotherapy. Crisis intervention is sometimes referred to as 'emotional first aid' and is a specialized acute emergency mental health intervention which requires specialized training. The core elements of this comprehensive, systematic and multi-component crisis intervention curriculum teach participants the fundamentals of, and a specific protocol for, individual and group crisis intervention. Participants will be prepared with the knowledge and tools to provide several group crisis intervention techniques and a wide range of crisis intervention services. Group techniques include demobilizations, defusing, and the Critical Incident Stress Debriefing (CISD).
