Suicidal Crisis

Abstract. Background: People attending the emergency department (ED) for suicidal crisis are at significantly higher risk of taking their own lives in the week following discharge. Aims: We aimed to evaluate the acceptability and feasibility of implementing a brief clinical aftercare intervention provided through Allied Health Brief Therapies (AHBTs) Clinics. Method: Consecutive referrals ( n = 149) to the clinics following assessment in the ED for suicidal crisis formed the study group. This article details participant engagement and retention, service provision, therapeutic alliance, and participant satisfaction with the program. Suicidal ideation and ED utilization 3 months pre-/postintervention were used to assess short-term impact. Results: The study supports the feasibility of implementing a brief aftercare intervention for those presenting to the ED for suicidal crisis. High rates of therapeutic alliance and satisfaction with the clinic intervention were reported by participants. Impact assessments pointed to a significant reduction in both suicidal ideation and ED utilization following the intervention. Limitations: A substantial number of participants had missing follow-up data. Given this and the absence of a control group, findings must be interpreted with caution. Conclusion: The study supports the acceptability and feasibility of implementing AHBT Clinics as a potential adjunct in the aftercare of people in suicidal crisis.

Schema Questionnaire

This pilot study examined the relationship between interpersonal schemas (as measured by the Interpersonal Schema Questionnaire) and the therapeutic alliance (as measured early in treatment by a patient self-report version of the Working Alliance Inventory) in short-term cognitive therapy. Twenty-six (15 men, 11 women) patients participated in this study. Findings revealed that the complementarity of expected responses in submissive situations was positively associated with therapeutic alliance, whereas the complementarity of expected responses in dominant situations and the desirability of these responses were negatively related to therapeutic alliance.

Collaborative Interaction

Despite the long tradition in psychotherapy research literature concerning the role of therapeutic alliance (TA), both in terms of process and outcome in clinical inter-vention, little is known about its specific characteristics in short term dynamic psy-chotherapy (STDP). Accordingly, the main aim of the present work is to focus on the formal features of TA in a good outcome STDP. We applied the Collaborative Interaction Scale (Colli & Lingiardi, 2009) to verbatim transcripts in order to track macro and micro evolution of TA while considering the interplay of both therapist and patient contributions. Data were analyzed in terms of TA general trend, TA climate onset and high impact session TA characteristics. Results sustain the STDP theory of technique (Davanloo, 1990) concerning the general process, the onset fea-tures and patient therapist interplay from a TA perspective.
