Crisis intervention is an immediate and short-term psychological care to restore equilibrium. I think this will be useful. This is very important topics in Advanced nursing practice and education too.
This presentation is an Introduction to Bowlby attachment theory and its extension researches which are still applicable when it comes to mother-child attachment.

Sharing these here as these can be helpful to others too.

Defense mechanisms are the behaviors people use to separate themselves from unpleasant events, actions, or thoughts. These are unconscious strategies whereby people protect themselves from anxious thoughts or feelings
Self-esteem is “the attitudinal, evaluative component of the self; the affective judgments placed on the self-concept consisting of feelings of worth and acceptance which are developed and maintained as a consequence of awareness of competence and feedback from the external world
In A Search for What Makes Sense/Finding Faith, I outlined four stages of faith development. I tried to synthesize the major theorists on moral, intellectual, and faith development into a simple but comprehensive schema: simplicity, complexity, perplexity, and humility/harmony. These are the powerpoints to the talks I give on the subject. Someday I'd like to put this presentation into a dvd format for group use. We'll see....

Spirituality and its application in nursing practiceSafad R. Isam
SpiritualityIt is the life force that gives meaning to a how a person understands, views, and lives life.
Spirituality can be
. . . determined by culture
. . . determined by life experiences unrelated to culture
. . . Influenced by both culture and personal experiences that are opposite to the cultural norm.
Spiritualty in Management / Workplace SpiritualityP.K. AGARWAL
Spirituality, thus, deals with understanding the nature of the Soul and one’s journey back to identifying with the Soul and experiencing it as one’s true nature.
Spirituality is the science about how to be blissful..

9. Spiritual Assessment
Spiritual Assessment is the process of gathering and
synthesizing spiritual and religious information into a
specific framework that provides basis for, and gives
direction to, subsequent practice decisions (interventions)
Four considerations to guide comprehensive spiritual
assessment: client autonomy, cultural competence, spiritual
norms and service provision, and spiritual salience

10. Client Autonomy: always respect a client’s
autonomy/authority/identity; client consent is important;
client determines the pathway (how deep we go, when it is
time to stop)
Cultural Competency: respect client’s worldview, beliefs and
values; be mindful of religious counter-transference (putting
your values onto a client’s experience and guiding); cultural
sensitivity
Spiritual Norms and Provision: do not stereotype or assume
a client’s identified religion is their spiritual awareness or
practice
Spiritual Salience: help clients draw from their own belief
system; facilitate theological reflection that helps clients
enhance their understanding
