Review: Educational and Inspiring - This book is very well organized. Each topic is introduced and explained, and then later chapters explore the subjects more deeply. It's like a semester course in book format - building on knowledge as you prgress through the chapters. Each chapter concludes with a well written summary. The information is also presented in a very practical way - which is important to me as I am currently working as a health coach. Previous courses I have taken spend too much time on the history and philosophy and not enough on the practical applications of motivational interviewing. These authors provide plenty of real-life examples to make the information more meaningful and applicable. Not only are great coaching techniques presented with examples, they also offer common mistakes to avoid. I am taking my time with this book and I am currently half way through. I can honestly say I am seeing an improvement in my connection with my clients (engaging) and more optimism and excitement for change in my clients. My personal confidence in my coaching has improved and I am enjoying my work more as a result of this book. Not only has this book helped me improve my coaching and motivational interviewing techniques, it has inspired me to be a better coach and to continue to improve so that I can assist others in making lasting change. I highly recommend it to those wanting to increase their methods of assisting change, no matter what your coaching niche may be.
Review: The bible of counseling - Awesome book that goes in detail into the world of MI. I feel like this book in a way is the bible for this kind of therapy as it has been proven how successful and valuable MI is. The book is clearly written and has a lot of examples of real life situations. I would say that it is even interesting for people that just want to learn how to deal with other people's problems and guide them in a therapeutic way without giving your opinion. Essential.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Bought and Replaced Multiple Times—The Gold Standard for Helping People Change
*by C***A on February 2, 2026*

I purchased Motivational Interviewing: Helping People Change, 3rd Edition on June 24, 2016, and like several other core clinical texts, this is a book I’ve bought multiple copies of over the years. It is not an exaggeration to say this book fundamentally shaped how I practice therapy. What makes this book exceptional is that it doesn’t just teach a technique—it teaches a way of being with clients. Motivational Interviewing (MI) respects autonomy, reduces resistance, and strengthens engagement by aligning with how people actually change, rather than how we wish they would. The third edition does an excellent job clarifying both the spirit and the skills of MI. Concepts like evoking change talk, rolling with resistance, and supporting self-efficacy are explained with precision and reinforced through rich clinical examples. The balance between theory, research, and practice is outstanding. This is a book that rewards rereading. As clinical experience grows, the material deepens rather than becoming obsolete. I’ve returned to it repeatedly—for skill refinement, supervision, and grounding myself when sessions felt stuck or adversarial. This is not a quick-fix manual or a scripted approach. It requires humility, attentiveness, and practice. But when used well, it changes conversations—and outcomes. For clinicians working in addiction, mental health, healthcare, corrections, social services, or any setting where behavior change matters, this book is essential.
