Description: "With 75% new material, the fully revised third edition of this clinical reference and text describes ways to integrate motivational interviewing (MI) into evidence-based psychotherapy and counseling. Readers learn how MI concepts and tools can enhance their foundational skills as helpers--and can be tailored for clients with depression, anxiety disorders, addictions, posttraumatic stress disorder, and other prevalent problems. Chapters are grounded in research on what works for particular disorders. Vivid case examples illustrate the role MI can play in helping clients at any stage of treatment to resolve ambivalence and mobilize their energy, commitment, and personal resources for change"--
Review Quotes: "Not only is MI here to stay, but, in fact, the application of MI has great potential as a treatment modality for helping with many diverse issues....Has something for everyone interested in psychological problems. It is appropriate for new clinicians, seasoned clinicians not familiar with MI, and even--or maybe especially--for those of us who are experienced motivational interviewers and MI trainers."
