In this book, Dr. Goldstein traces the conceptual origin of resistance and its evolving definitions over time. He discusses resistance as enemy, resistance as interaction, and resistance as myth. Dr. Goldstein proposes an optimal approach for successful management of resistance by combining client interventions with techniques for enhancing the therapist-client relationship. Covers topics such as motivational interviewing, goal setting, client empowerment, conformity pressures, the importance of social support networks, and working with challenging clients.
