family psychotherapy: crisis


In a crisis [Greek krisis, a turning point] situation, the internal and external adaptation (adaptability) of an individual or a system is disturbed. When previously successful adaptive mechanisms are insufficient to preserve stability or balance, new skills and a corresponding internal restructuring become necessary.*
