According to the American Counseling Association

The primary purpose of 1:1 (one on one) crisis counseling is to help an individual to restore some sense of control and mastery after a crisis event or disaster. It is not unusual that in a crisis or disaster event an individual’s normal coping capacities are taxed. Individuals can become overwhelmed emotionally and may have difficulty with problem solving and other coping skills. Also, the individual’s basic beliefs (western phenomenon) about themselves (I can keep myself safe), others (humans are generally good [generally challenged in human generated disasters such as terrorism, war, etc) and the world (is generally a safe place) might have been violated.

1:1 crisis counseling is discrete and has limited goals to ensure safety and promote overall stability. The goal is to provide emotional support and concrete feedback/assistance for the individual. Crisis counseling helps problem-solve and assists individuals in obtaining available resources. The duration of 1:1 crisis counseling can range from 15 minutes to 2 hour
