Motivational Interviewing

Helping People Change and Grow

De: William R. Miller PhD, Stephen Rollnick PhD

Narrado por: Michael Quinlan

Now in a fully rewritten fourth edition, this is the authoritative presentation of motivational interviewing (MI), the powerful approach to facilitating change. It has been updated and streamlined to be even more user-friendly as a practitioner guide and course text. MI originators William R. Miller and Stephen Rollnick elucidate the four tasks of MI—engaging, focusing, evoking, and planning—and vividly demonstrate what they look like in action. A wealth of vignettes and interview examples (engagingly read by multiple narrators) illustrate the dos and don'ts of successful implementation in diverse contexts. The book reviews the evidence base for the approach and covers ways to assess the quality of MI. Virtually a new book, the fourth edition addresses the breadth of MI applications, not only in counseling and psychotherapy, but also in health care, education, coaching, management, and other contexts. The companion website provides reflection questions, annotated case material, and additional helpful resources. This title is in the Applications of Motivational Interviewing series, edited by Stephen Rollnick, William R. Miller, and Theresa B. Moyers.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Miller and Rollnick masterfully guide us through the story of how MI has developed over four decades and bring its sophisticated simplicity to life in a way that stimulates the mind, touches the heart, and invites best practice. This text will remain the favorite companion for all professional helpers who want to weave MI into what they do. The fourth edition has an increased emphasis on growth, in addition to change, underscoring the importance of supporting persistence and maintenance of change. This book is very useful for any graduate-level curricula that focus on behavior change and/or psychotherapy skills."--Steve Martino, PhD, Department of Psychiatry, Yale University School of Medicine; member, Motivational Interviewing Network of Trainers

"The fourth edition of Motivational Interviewing is an incredibly helpful resource for those in the helping professions and those training graduate students in health care, education, or psychology. It contains much of value for novice and advanced MI users. Transcripts of flowing conversations highlight the innovative ways that MI supports people to change and grow."--Wendy M. Reinke, PhD, Department of Educational, School, and Counseling Psychology, and Missouri Prevention Science Institute, University of Missouri–Columbia

"The fourth edition of this go-to text is like a home-cooked meal served up with all your favorites, but with a healthy dose of new concepts, skills, and upgraded terminology. Miller and Rollnick bring their trademark rigor and humility to this compelling refresh of the MI ‘bible.’ Replete with poignant clinical examples, the book strikes a perfect balance of the conceptual and practical. The new 'Personal Perspective' and 'For Therapists' features woven into each chapter work exceedingly well. The fourth edition is yet again a 'must read' for practitioners and a superb text for any MI-related course--I will use it in mine."--Kenneth Resnicow, PhD, Irwin M. Rosenstock Collegiate Professor of Public Health, University of Michigan

All of it

I like the client examples and chapters describing the skills. I also liked the chapter on effectiveness.

Diverse and Engaging Examples

I appreciate the realistic depictions of MI conversations. This was a useful refresher for a practitioner and ongoing work to master Motivational Interviewing. the chapter on ambivalence was particularly useful for the most challenging aspect of using MI.

Relevant and educational for parents also

Learned a lot from this book even though I’m a parent, not a provider. Concepts of empathic listening, minimizing discord and sustain talk are universally applicable to any change.

Informative and Interesting

A well done breakdown of the research and how it works, simply put so anyone can understand.

Useful Teaching

This book had a lot of useful information for how to use and perform motivational interviewing. I’m almost done with my master’s degree in therapy and I learned more from this book than my textbook.

wonderful information and presentation

Miller is solid, Deceptively simple principles, Recommended for aspiring therapists or anyone working with people for a living.

Interesting. But could be half as long.

I love the concept of MI but this book was so long and talked a lot about MI before really getting into what it even was. It could have been a lot more concise and had more explanation on what it actually was.
