Mental stratagems can be one theory which can be applied to patients suffering from crisis and requiring crisis counselling (Miller, 2012). This is because there can be demoralizing thoughts generated in the minds of victims affected by traumatized crime. These thoughts will always be required to be removed completely from the minds of the victims. There can be difficulty initially to get rid of every negative thought. However, gradual use of mental stratagems can ensure that the thoughts are controlled by the power of the minds of the victims.
