About this title

Synopsis

Designed to address recent developments in the quickly evolving field of motivating people to change behaviors and lead healthier lives, Motivational Interviewing for Clinical Practice provides busy clinicians with expert guidance for integrating motivational interviewing into their practice. Health professionals typically are trained in patient-centered interviewing, but motivational interviewing, which helps patients change their health behaviors, requires practice and focused attention on skill development. This book will prove especially helpful for clinicians who have an interest in behavior change but do not possess specialized training in addiction treatment. The study questions at the end of most chapters, accompanied by an answer guide, will help reinforce basic concepts and can be used for self-study and board or general review. Although motivational interviewing originated with addiction treatment, it is an effective tool for other patient populations, and the books straightforward, practical approach will appeal to nurse practitioners, family physicians, internists, pediatricians, counselors, social workers, and others interested in motivating their patients to become healthy and stay healthy.
Together, the editors and authors have created a multidisciplinary book that is informative, practical, easy to read, and engaging. Motivational Interviewing for Clinical Practice will be an essential tool for clinicians seeking a better understanding of motivational work in the treatment of their patients.
