Synopsis

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.

Have you ever left your doctor's office feeling as if your observations/concerns/questions about your health weren't fully heard or answered? That's our modern healthcare system for you: quick, efficient, and sorely lacking in empathy. While the basic problem-solution approach is great for emergency......more

Although the primary purpose of this book is to define and describe an approach to one-to-one health care consultations, it is also usefull for reader whose aim is just gain some personal development abilities like me.

Goodreads review by Jamie on August 12, 2018

This wasn't a fascinating read, but the lessons were important. I actually feel like they apply pretty broadly - any time you're talking to someone who is trying to make a change, needs to change or is coming at a subject from a different perspective than you are. Being aware of your automatic refle......more
