1. Motivational Interviewing: Helping People Change And Grow
Helping People Change and Grow
A practical, evidence-based guide to a collaborative, person-centered counseling method that helps people resolve ambivalence and strengthen their own motivation to change. It explains the approach’s core spirit and processes—engaging, focusing, evoking, and planning—while teaching skills such as open questions, affirmations, reflective listening, and summaries. Through cases and step-by-step strategies, it shows how to elicit and respond to change talk, navigate resistance, and apply the method across health, addiction, and mental health settings with empathy, respect for autonomy, cultural responsiveness, and ethical practice.
