Synopsis

With the latest research and methods to help you become an effective professional in today's diverse world, ESSENTIAL INTERVIEWING makes the interview clear and specific for anyone training to work in the helping professions. By clearly defining the core communication skills essential to any interview and vividly demonstrating their effective use, the authors give you the tools to conduct successful interviews in a variety of situations. With an emphasis on client Story (listening and helping clients tell their tales), Restory (helping clients think about their lives and the world in new ways), and Action (what needs to be done to make the story come to life), ESSENTIAL INTERVIEWING offers you the same programmed-learning model of interviewing that has successfully trained countless members of the helping professions for nearly 30 years.

The additional Chapter 6 is also an excellent addition to facilitate student understanding and learning. The revised chapter organization is a great improvement "
