Novel application of skills for psychological recovery as an early intervention for violent loss : rationale and case examples

Article

WILLIAMS, Joah L. | RHEINGOLD, Alyssa A.

This article describes a novel application of Skills for Psychological Recovery (SPR) -a brief, early intervention developed by the National Center for posttraumatic stress disorder and the National Child Traumatic Stress Network- for families grieving the violent death of a loved one. Drawing on conservation of resources theory, SPR incorporates cognitive-behavioral skills-building modules to help survivors cope with trauma-related distress and posttrauma resource loss. The authors describe the intervention and illustrate the use of SPR for violent loss by presenting data from two cases involving a suicide survivor and a homicide survivor. Implications for future research are discussed.
