THE SAFER-R MODEL
Of CRISIS INTERVENTION WITH INDIVIDUALS
(George S. Everly, Jr., Ph.D., C.T.S, 2001

STABILIZE
The first part of the stabilization process involves introductions. It would be
best if there were already a rapport between the individual who has been
involved in the event and the one helping with the intervention. Following the
introductions, see that basic needs are met within an environment of safety.
ACKNOWLEDGE
Acknowledgement of the event includes listening to the who, what, and when,
of the event story. Try not to focus on the why and how of the event.
These tend to lead to judgment statements. Stay with the facts.
Acknowledgement of reactions involves listening to the responses and reactions
of the one involved with the event.
FACILITATE UNDERSTANDING
This step involves encouraging the expression of difficult emotions, and helping
them understand the impact of the critical event. It is a time paraphrase the
content of what is being said. It is a time for normalization; it is an opportunity
to share that and event such as they have been through will elicit reactions and
emotions. It is a time to attribute reactions and emotions to the situation, and
not to personal weakness.
ENCOURAGE EFFECTIVE COPING
Here is the time to identify personal stress management tools. These
management techniques might include time management, nutritional techniques,
avoiding known stressors, relaxation response training, physical exercise, and
catharsis. Also identify external support/coping resources.
RECOVERY or REFERRAL
Assess the persons ability to safely function. Make referrals as needed
