The SSW is excited to announce the publication of Emeritus Professor Dr. Melinda Hohman’s new book, the second edition of Motivational Interviewing in Social Work Practice. It includes contributions from many MSW alumni, including Debbie Boerbaitz, Jacquie Fajardo, Sarah Feteih, Claudia Gonzalez, Soraiya Khamisa, Yuen Lam Shek, Chris Walker, and Marya Wright, about their use of Motivational Interviewing in their work.
 
“The definitive text on motivational interviewing (MI) written by and for social workers has now been updated and expanded with 60% new material, including a revised conceptual framework, cutting-edge applications, and enhanced pedagogical features. Melinda Hohman and her associates demonstrate what MI looks like in action, how it transforms conversations with clients, and how to integrate it into social work practice in a wide range of settings. Extensive new case examples and annotated sample dialogues bring the concepts to life, helping readers build their own repertoires of MI skills. The book also summarizes the research base for MI and shares expert recommendations for teaching, training, and professional development.”
