| Abstract |
This study aims to develop a Crisis Loss Counseling Model for individuals in the pre- and post-divorce phases. It identifies coping strategies, resilience levels, experiences of loss crises, and counseling intervention needs among people facing divorce issues. The findings show that clients tend to use adaptive coping strategies more than maladaptive ones, while resilience is at a moderate level. Integrating the study's findings resulted in a comprehensive model consisting of six main phases: initial screening, relationship building and session structuring, issue exploration and crisis assessment, intervention, support, and post-divorce adjustment. The model's validity was tested using the Fuzzy Delphi method and has the potential to serve as a systematic, phased, and responsive guide for crisis counseling interventions in the context of handling divorce in Malaysia. |
