A practical approach to clinical interventions applicable to a range of mental health diagnoses
Integrated Motivational Interviewing and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (ICBT) for Adults is a guide for practitioners looking for evidence-based clinical interventions that are portable across settings and diagnoses. Written in plain English and with an emphasis on step-by-step instructions, this valuable toolkit collects strategies and interventions that have been shown to be effective in substance use disorder, depression, anxiety, and beyond. This widely applicable treatment approach draws on motivational interviewing, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), motivational enhancement therapy, mindfulness, functional analysis, and other methods that are strongly supported in the literature. With content reflecting emerging research findings and evolving social contexts, this book is both timely and firmly rooted in science.
After presenting a set of proven techniques for motivational interviewing and CBT, this book details a 16-session course designed to fit within conventional models of therapeutic practice. Each session covers a cognitive behavioral skill (e.g., assertiveness, handling cravings, suicidality) and builds upon the previous sessions, but they also work as standalone interventions and do not have to be followed in a particular order. The book also offers additional tools to promote intervention quality and clinical supervision. Worksheets, handouts, and other materials are included in photocopiable format, making this a valuable guide in all outpatient mental health settings. - Learn the fundamentals of motivational interviewing, cognitive behavioral therapy, and other evidence-based treatment modalities - Get practical clinical tools, including step-by-step session guides on cognitive behavioral skills relevant to a range of diagnoses - Access self-assessments, clinical supervision tools, and other resources to enhance clinical effectiveness - Incorporate emerging research, changing social contexts, and lessons learned from the COVID-19 pandemic into your practice
Earlier editions of this guide focused on addressing substance use disorders and cooccurring disorders. This edition is applicable to those disorders but reflects that these clinical strategies are transdiagnostic.
