Synopsis

Praised nationwide by instructors throughout the helping professions, INTERVIEWING IN ACTION gives students the clinical wisdom and hands-on practice to fully develop their clinical interviewing skills. In this Second Edition, Bianca Cody Murphy and Carolyn Dillon reinforce their superb RE-VIEW Practice Method of skills development with even greater emphasis on the importance of relationship building as a key to successful clinical process. As suggested by the book's new subtitle--RELATIONSHIP, PROCESS, AND CHANGE--the authors show students how they can promote change over time using the client-clinician relationship as an impetus for growth. A book and video package option offers many teaching and learning solutions. With this option, students purchase the package--the book and the full video at a greatly reduced price. The video includes short, specific clips that illustrate the chapter's discussion in action--in real client/clinician settings. The 120-minute video features six client/clinician pairs, including one completely new to this edition.

Review:

"All chapters are well written. They are practical, clear, concise, and interesting. I especially liked the authors' view of the material as designed to be a collaborative process between instructor and students. I also appreciated their view of the treatment process itself as one of collaboration between therapist and client." In reference to the revised video: "This is an outstanding video!"

"The changes to the second edition are excellent! They include more diverse populations. I will strong recommend that this new edition be adopted..."
