Motivational Interviewing in Nutrition and Fitness Applications of Motivational Interviewing 9781462524181 Medicine Health Science Books Reviews

• As a Registered Dietitian, I am always on the lookout for ways to learn to do my job better. By that I mean, ways to help my clients more effectively. I was turned onto Motivational Interviewing a number of years ago and have read a few books on the topic. The other books were helpful but I would get a bit frustrated with the examples they provided as they were often related to issues other than food and healthy lifestyle choices. This book, on the other hand, is all about helping clients with their eating and making healthy lifestyle changes. It is the best book I have read on the subject and I would say it is a "Must Read" for anyone who works with people to help them make healthy diet and lifestyle choices.
• This is a terrific book that I'm finding very helpful as a personal trainer and nutrition coach. I wish I could take all the info in this book and just perfectly get it in my head and practice, but that will take time. -) In just the first few chapters I've learned a lot that I've been able to start applying so I can be more effective with communicating with clients.
• This is an excellent and fun read and a must-have starting point for dietitians or clinicians of any background or age. More applicable to the outpatient population for sure, but it does cover more fast-paced inpatient examples of motivational interviewing. I recommend this book to all food and nutrition professionals - students, interns, new RDs, or the most experienced RDs with a million more letters after their names. Concrete examples which are numerous and helpful.
• This book is invaluable for the nutrition, fitness, and health counseling field! I learned so much and apply it on a daily basis for my position as a therapist. Highly recommend!
• I haven't finished reading through the book, but so far the information has been helpful in client interactions (I am a registered dietitian).
• As a fitness professional we not only know fitness but need to know how to connect with our clients. Excellent book!
• So helpful! Really detailed real life examples. I love this book for helping me in my work as a personal trainer.
• still in process of reading, but exactly what i expected.. useful scenarios, which are directly applicable to my profession.
