GC 814 - Helping Students Manage Crisis

(3.00 cr.)

Prerequisite: GC 701 , GC 704 . Focuses on the behavioral and emotional reactions to crisis and trauma, including basic crisis concepts and strategies for prevention, assessment, intervention, and follow-up for children and adolescents at risk or already suffering from a crisis related to internal or external causes. Students are exposed to the unique characteristics of a variety of crises and traumas that children and adolescents experience, how they are impacted, and how they respond. A counselor's role in the lives of the students affected by crisis and trauma is explored and studied. Crisis experienced by students in schools is emphasized, including the causes, symptoms, and behavioral reactions; appropriate short-term responses by school counselors; and the importance of reintegrating students into the school environment.
