Motivational Interviewing in Health Care: Helping Patients Change Behavior by Rollnick, Miller, & Butler
- Presents a streamlined model of MI application for health care providers who are not counselors by training. What I love about this book is that it anticipates and responds to just about every question or concern I have heard when working with folks in medical settings. You can tell the authors have actually done this once or twice!
