Iarussi offers a timely and comprehensive text that impressively situates the integration of MI and CBT in psychotherapy. Case examples, practice exercises, and annotated transcripts engage the reader in a joint excursion of the four options for MI and CBT integration. A centerpiece of this work is the application of an integrative method with diverse populations. Iarussi provides feasible recommendations for resolving potential dilemmas in today's practice settings. A highly useful text for students and practitioners alike. - Cynthia J. Osborn, PhD, Professor of Counselor Education and Supervision, Kent State University, Ohio, USA
Written with the practitioner in mind, Dr. Iarussi outlines in superb detail how to properly integrate two of the most well-research counseling approaches: MI and CBT. Readers will find a firm grounding in each approach, followed by a treasure trove of applications to enhance their practice. With increasing calls for therapeutic integration, I cannot think of a timelier and more relevant resource on MI and CBT. - Todd F. Lewis, PhD, Professor of Counselor Education at North Dakota State University, USA
