"Rather than blaming the client for lack of change, this book takes seriously the clinician’s role in the change process. In a friendly, accessible format, the book shows how to skillfully guide clients toward healthy behavior change. Rosengren does a superb job of breaking down complex material. At each step, the book points out exactly why the clinician is choosing certain questions and statements. The follow-up exercises allow the reader to 'try out' the techniques and receive feedback. For those who are new to MI or who are already familiar with the approach, I highly recommend this book."--Scott Walters, PhD, University of Texas School of Public Health
"An outstanding contribution to the MI training field. Rosengren has synthesized the core components of MI and the many approaches for teaching it into one very useful workbook. Engaging, crisp, and approachable, the book presents self-training tools that are applicable to a wide range of practitioners, settings, and clients. This book will definitely not just sit on the shelf. Readers will want to revisit it time and time again to hone their MI skills and find new ideas for teaching the approach to others."--Steve Martino, PhD, Department of Psychiatry, Yale University School of Medicine

Building Motivational Interviewing Skills: A Practitioner Workbook,
By MI RD "MI RD" (Vancouver, Canada) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Building Motivational Interviewing Skills: A Practitioner Workbook (Paperback)
Building Motivational Interviewing Skills: A Practitioner Workbook is an excellent companion-book to second edition) [i.e. MI2] and these two books can be read sequentially or together. Building Motivational Interviewing Skills: A Practitioner Workbook is based on the workshops given by the author over the past 15 years and underscores the theory covered in MI2. I would encourage those interested in Motivational Interviewing to consider both of these books.Building Motivational Interviewing Skills: A Practitioner Workbook Motivational Interviewing: Preparing People for Change

This review is from: Building Motivational Interviewing Skills: A Practitioner Workbook (Paperback)
This is a superb book. There are a number of excellent books on motivational interviewing but none that are so clearly directed to helping practitioners develop and practice their motivational interviewing skills.The book presents clear, concise explanations of the core concepts and skills of motivational interviewing along with exercises to help the reader gain experience by putting the skills into practice. Whether you are new to motivational interviewing, an experienced practitioner hoping to enhance your motivational interviewing skills, or a trainer involved in teaching others how to use this approach to behavior change, this book will be a valuable resource. Highly recommended. Steve Schack, MSW, CDP Member, Motivational Interviewing Network of Trainers Evergreen Treatment Services Seattle, WA, USA 12 of 14 people found the following review helpful

I purchased this book to utilize the many worksheets for training purposes. The activities are realistic and easily transferable to enhansing MI skills. I work in corrections and find this book valuable and worth the cost.
