Trade Review

"Are there ways of improving engagement with psychological treatment like CBT? Any counsellor, therapist, manager or policy-maker interested in this question will find this book a breath of fresh air. It breaks down the barriers between treatment approaches to consider how motivational interviewing might be integrated with CBT. The useful practical details are here, along with an openness to innovation that will serve our clients well. As such, this book is ground-breaking."

- Stephen Rollnick, Professor of Clinical Psychology at Cardiff University and co-founder of Motivational Interviewing
