Crisis intervention sessions are designed to provide immediate support and guidance during times of emotional distress. Our therapists focus on stabilising the situation, helping you manage your emotions, and working through practical solutions.
A typical crisis intervention session may include:
- Emotional Support: We provide a compassionate space where you can express your emotions and share your experience of the crisis without fear of judgement.
- Assessment of Immediate Needs: We assess the immediate emotional and psychological needs of the individual in crisis to determine the best course of action.
- Crisis Stabilisation: Our therapists help stabilise your emotional state by offering coping strategies, grounding exercises, or mindfulness techniques to reduce panic, anxiety, or distress.
- Problem-Solving and Planning: We guide you in developing practical solutions to manage the crisis, including steps you can take to resolve immediate issues or access additional support.
- Referral for Further Care:
If ongoing support is needed, we provide referrals for long-term therapy or specialised services to ensure you have the resources to continue your recovery.

Crisis Intervention Services Frequently Asked Questions
What is Crisis Intervention?
Crisis intervention is a short-term, focused form of therapy designed to help individuals who are experiencing a psychological or emotional crisis. Whether the crisis is related to a traumatic event, sudden loss, relationship breakdown, mental health emergency, or other overwhelming situations, crisis intervention helps individuals regain emotional stability and develop coping strategies.
The goal of crisis intervention is to address the emotional needs of the person in crisis, provide support, and guide them towards practical steps for recovery. It focuses on helping individuals navigate the crisis, minimise emotional harm, and create a plan for managing the aftermath.
How long does a crisis intervention session last?
At Sigma Therapies, a typical therapy session lasts approximately 45 to 55 minutes. However, the duration can vary slightly depending on the nature of the session and the specific needs of the client. Your psychologist will discuss the expected session length with you during your initial consultation or when planning for such interventions or assessments.
Is crisis intervention confidential?
Yes, all sessions at Sigma Therapies are confidential. Our therapists are committed to maintaining your privacy and providing a safe, supportive environment for discussing your feelings.
Is crisis intervention covered by Medicare?
Individual counselling at Sigma Therapies may be covered under the Mental Health Care Plan if provided by a registered psychologist. Speak with your GP about accessing a Mental Health Care Plan to receive Medicare rebates for counselling sessions.
