Motivational Interviewing for Clinical Practice teaches the reader
how to use the critically important tool of motivational
interviewing to promote health and well-being. Based on the
theoretical framework of Miller and Rollnick, the book presents the
latest models and techniques that the editors and authors have
found helpful in their scholarship and clinical experience. Failure
to adhere to recommended treatments is common across a wide range
of illnesses-from medical problems, such as hypertension or
management of cardiovascular risk factors, to psychiatric
disorders, including addiction. The methods and skills of
motivational interviewing can be applied to any health behavior, be
it giving up alcohol or cigarettes, taking medication for
hypertension or high cholesterol, or changing dietary and exercise
habits. Motivational Interviewing for Clinical Practice has many
useful features: * The book is organized along the four processes
of motivational interviewing-engaging, focusing, evoking, and
planning-which provides a consistent framework for enhanced
understanding.* The authors include numerous case examples with
extensive illustrations of clinical dialogue that will be
invaluable to both novices and experts.* The book explores the
integration of motivational interviewing with other psychotherapies
and the use of motivational interviewing with psychopharmacology.*
The authors also address special topics such as motivational
interviewing in a diverse society and the teaching of motivational
interviewing.* Key points, references, and multiple-choice
examination questions, along with explanations of the correct
answers, are provided, as well as numerous clinical tools and
summary tables to bring the material to life.* For those looking
for a quick general or board review on the topic, the multiple
choice questions and answers are collected together in a special
section for easy access, self-study, and review.* Medical students
new to motivational interviewing provide reflections on each
chapter, focusing readers on the material deemed by their peers to
be most useful to them in the future. Written for busy clinicians
without specialized knowledge or expertise in behavior change,
Motivational Interviewing for Clinical Practice provides
straightforward, practical suggestions for working effectively with
patients who suffer from substance use and other psychiatric
disorders.
