Question 1 of 10
Managing Crisis Situations
Curtis and Jonah
Three days ago, a shooting at a small town's only secondary school killed two students. The county mental health agency asks a family therapist to help at a family assistance center. Curtis, a single father, brings his son Jonah, 12, who hid in a locked classroom during the shooting. Jonah has not slept alone since then. Curtis, a military veteran, says the news coverage has "brought everything back" from his own deployment.
Which approach is most appropriate for the therapist's first meeting with Curtis and Jonah?
