Motivational Interviewing 4th Edition now available!

Now, in a fully rewritten fourth edition, this is the authoritative presentation of motivational interviewing (MI), the powerful approach to facilitating change.
New to This Edition:
  • Most of the book is entirely new.
  • Addresses the breadth of MI applications not only in counseling and psychotherapy, but also in health care, education, coaching, management, and other contexts.
  • Discusses delivering MI remotely, simple versus complex affirmations, strategic use of directional questions, ethical considerations, and other new or expanded topics.
  • Increased emphasis on using MI throughout a client’s process of change and growth, not just in the preparatory stage.

Youtube interviews filmed at the 2018 MI Network of Trainers forum

Sebastian Kaplan and Glenn Hinds have added to their growing series of MI podcasts with a few interviews with speakers at the 2018 MINT forum in New Orleans.

​While the forum is only open to members of MINT, these interviews are available to everyone.

As always, please forward this information to colleagues or networks you think might be interested. I don't advertise in order to keep the workshops affordable so word of mouth makes a big difference.

Listening Well - William Miller

We often focus on what questions or reflections we may ask in MI, and yet we know the most fundamental skill of good communication is the capacity to stay present and listen deeply.
