About this listen

This indispensable book is the definitive guide to motivational interviewing (MI) for health care practitioners.

When it comes to helping patients manage chronic and acute conditions and make healthier choices in such areas as medication adherence, smoking, diet, and preventive care, good advice alone is not enough. By using MI techniques, doctors, nurses, and other providers can transform conversations about change. The book shows how even the briefest clinical interaction can serve to build trust, clarify patients' goals as well as reasons for ambivalence, and guide them to take positive steps. Vivid sample dialogues, engagingly read by multiple narrators, illustrate ways to incorporate this evidence-based approach into diverse health care settings.

Also included are practical tips, sample scripts, "Try This" activities, and reflections on using MI from practitioners in a range of contexts. The second edition has been restructured around the four-process model of MI (engaging, focusing, evoking, and planning) and incorporates lessons learned from the authors' ongoing clinical practice and practitioner training workshops. This title is in the Applications of Motivational Interviewing series, edited by Stephen Rollnick, William R. Miller, and Theresa B. Moyers.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Critic Reviews

"Whether you are a health care professional-in-training or an experienced practitioner, this book is for you! The second edition is chock-full of information on current everyday challenges in a busy practice, including medication adherence, pain management, vaccine hesitancy, weight loss, addressing multiple behavior changes, working with hostile patients, and using MI remotely. The book weaves together the spirit of MI and micro-skills with newer processes of engaging, focusing, evoking, and planning, which are essential to facilitating behavior change. Highlights include practitioners’ reflections, practical exercises, annotated clinical scenarios, and sample open-ended questions for each process. This book can help you rediscover the joys of clinical work and prevent burnout by using MI to create more satisfying, efficient, and effective patient conversations."--Melanie A. Gold, DO, DMQ, Professor of Pediatrics and Population and Family Health, Columbia University Irving Medical Center

"We use this book as one of the texts in our Advanced Health Promotion and Disease Prevention course, which introduces MI skills to advanced practice registered nurses. The students learn to see patients as people first, and to achieve better outcomes by using partnership, acceptance, compassion, and empowerment. The text has simple instructions with practical tools for application. This book fits into the classroom and practice setting as a resource for many health care disciplines."--Melanie Markham, MSN-ED, RN, Adjunct Faculty, School of Nursing, Regis College

“Health care has been stuck in the ‘righting reflex,’ trying to fix patients by projecting science onto them. But to truly shift towards healthy outcomes, patients want our hearts and our ears before our science. This book guides us toward a process of care that is more effective for those we serve and more rewarding for ourselves. The second edition thoroughly updates this classic resource for delivering value-based care."--David Rakel, MD, Department of Family Medicine and Community Health, University of Wisconsin School of Medicine and Public Health
