Sensory-Based Therapy for Crisis Counselors

When giving consideration to the developmental psychology of Erik Erikson, crises may be viewed as fundamental parts of life. According to Slaikeu (1984), “Crisis is a time when ‘everything is on the line,’ so to speak. Previous means of coping and managing problems break down in the face of new threats and challenges. The potential for good or bad outcomes lies in the disorganization and disequilibrium of crisis.”
