Motivational Interviewing, Fourth Edition: Helping People Change and Grow (Applications of Motivational Interviewing)

Very compelling, educational, and useful, with easy-to-understand content. I use MI in my work, and this book helped me connect with the customers, gave me the tools to enable them to overcome addictions, Mental Health issues, and get their life back on track.

Brilliant and beautifully broken down book on Motivational Interviewing.

An interesting topic which has more use outside of the working environment due to time restraints.

Good purchase. Worth reading of you are interested on MI and behaviour change.

Save your money

This book into its 4th updated edition is very enriching and helpful for mental health professionals in particular to try and elicit change from within themselves

Excellent book for any clinician, especially as a review for basics of Motivational Interviewing (MI) which in my practice has been the gold standard for working with patients with eating disorders and any other tough-to-treat conditions. Don’t let the date fool you- this is a classic written by the original MI experts, just excuse the British-isms! Begins with an explanation of why most clinicians are not successful with just CBT, DBT, whatever modality they use- namely that it is the minority of patients/clients who come to us fully ready to make a huge change, while most are still “on the fence” in one way or another, and need the compassionate clinician to help them shift from a “pre-contemplative” or “contemplative” stage without nagging or assuming they are 100% motivated. I’ve used this as a mandatory text book for grad students in counselling profession training and I continue to reference it. Contains clear writing, well organized chapters, and useful sample dialogues. Well worth the price on the sleeve!

Easy to read, very accessible even if you're new to the topic.

Incredible! As someone who wants above all to be helpful to those around me, MI really challenged my approaches and provides a template for change-moderation that conpletely aligns with intuition on how I would like to receive help - not with pity or know-it-all-ism, but with openness and curiosity for my inner conflict.

MIの本質とか核心を伝えようとする意図を感じます。説明が詳しく分量が多い三版と両方読む価値あり。
