Crisis intervention strategies aim to help individuals cope with and recover from a traumatic event or crisis. The first step in crisis intervention is to establish a sense of emotional security and safety for the individual. This can involve providing emotional support, active listening, and empathetic communication.

While the long-term resolution of issues and promotion growth of the individual may be important goals of crisis intervention, they are not the immediate focus. Crisis intervention is designed to address the immediate needs of the individual and help them stabilize their emotions and regain a sense of control.

Responses a and b are positive but not necessarily helpful in addressing the client's concerns.
