Rigorously field-tested by on-the-ground clinicians, this guidebook provides an easy-to-use, evidence-based summary of using MI to treat dual disorders, generally substance abuse and another disorder, like depression or anxiety. MI is a counseling approach that works to facilitate and engage intrinsic motivation within clients to bring about behavior change. This concise guide lays out the basics of MI so any clinician can implement it with their clients. Self-questionnaires, case studies, role play transcripts, diagrams, exercises, and worksheets make it easy for front-line case workers and therapists of all kinds to learn the fundamentals of this treatment modality and put it to use immediately.
