Motivational Interviewing Second Edition by William R. Miller Book PDF Summary
"Motivational interviewing (MI) is an effective evidence-based approach to overcoming the ambivalence that keeps many people from making desired changes in the lives, even after seeking or being referred to professional treatment. Extensively rewritten, this revised and expanded second edition applies MI to the challenges of change within and beyond the addictions field, with updates from what has been learned in the last decade. The volume incorporates emerging knowledge on the process of behaviour change, a growing body of outcome research, and discussions of novel applications. It is essential reading for anyone wishing to help clients get "unstuck" and free up their own resources for change." - front flap.
