It began as the brainchild of William R, Miller and Stephen Rollnick as a useful technique in helping substance abusers change. However, motivational interviewing (MI) is now a tool in removing resistance to treatment, and therefore change , in a range of physical and mental conditions. It can be a stand-alone treatment or work in concert with others, and its effectiveness in certain applications has been widely supported by research. These 13 essays describe how practitioners can integrate MI in treatment for anxiety, obsessive-compulsive disorder, depression, suicidal behaviors, eating disorders, pathological gambling, schizophrenia, dual diagnosis, and criminal behavior. The material on using MI in the treatment of combat veterans with post-traumatic stress disorder is particularly interesting, as is the essay on using MI as a prelude to treatment or specifically to reduce resistance. The collection closes with speculation on new applications. Annotation ©2008 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
