Now in a fully revised second edition with 75% new material and applications to a broader range of settings, this book provides evidence-based strategies for helping people with legal involvement to achieve important changes in their lives. Jill D. Stinson and Michael D. Clark demonstrate ways to draw on clients' values, goals, and strengths to build connection and facilitate growth--rather than superficial compliance--using motivational interviewing (MI). The authors clearly describe the core techniques of MI and illustrate applications in direct care, case management, supervision, forensic counseling, risk assessment, and other real-world legal and justice contexts. First edition title: Motivational Interviewing with Offenders: Engagement, Rehabilitation, and Reentry.
New to This Edition
- Broader scope: Addresses MI applications in family courts, forensic mental health, emergency response systems, and more, as well as criminal justice and corrections.
- New case examples, sample dialogues, and thought exercises; attention to brief interventions; more inclusive, destigmatizing language throughout.
- Heightened focus on practitioner well-being, including burnout prevention strategies.
- Reflects key developments in MI and current research on motivation, rehabilitation, and helping relationships.
This book is in the Applications of Motivational Interviewing series, edited by Stephen Rollnick, William R. Miller, and Theresa B. Moyers.
