There is controversy as to whether psychological interventions in the aftermath of disaster are helpful or not. This book addresses these controversies and describes the responses that psychologists have made in different parts of the world to disaster.

From the Publisher

"Psychological Interventions in Times of Crisis is an original contribution to the relatively new field of collective trauma. With the rigor of experienced academicians and clinicians Barbanel and Sternberg have managed to gather an outstanding group of international psychologists who attempt to conceptualize the responses that psychologists have made in the aftermath of disasters ranging from Chernobyl and West Africa to 9/11 USA. "The scope of this volume transcends expectations. The chapters address theoretical as well as technical issues, offering a clear and substantial repertoire for psychologists invested in working outside of their offices. With respect and sensitivity to cultural diversity, the authors are most successful in devising frames capable of containing the complex need of non-pathological populations affected by disasters. "Professionals and volunteers will benefit from Barbanel and Sternberg’s thoughtful weaving of clinical practice and educational work. The in-depth exploration of psychological interventions offered by this book is bound to lessen the threat of secondary dramatization suffered by mental health professionals working in the area of trauma and disaster." Isaac Tylim, PsyD, ABPP, Secretary, International Psychoanalytic Association, Committee on the United Nations; Co-Coordinator, New York University Post-Doctoral Program in Psychotherapy and Psychoanalysis Trauma and Disaster Specialization Program "This book offers to psychotherapists who wish to risk connection with survivors of disasters a powerful paradigm for how to engage fully in that task with open hearts and informed minds. The wealth of information from some of our most experienced contributors to the field of trauma and disaster psychology, as well as the fresh insights offered from a multicultural perspective, will surely make this book a classic."
