Lee shows how affirming a client's cultural identity is part and parcel of MI's humanistic, person-centered mindset. The book provides instruction on key therapeutic tasks, such as strengthening rapport, asking about culture without stereotyping, and inquiring about experiences of stigma and discrimination in a way that increases motivation to change. Links between social and structural determinants of health, sociocultural stressors, mental health disparities, and substance use are highlighted. Special features include \"Pause and Consider\" sidebars and end-of-chapter key takeaway points. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e This book is in the Applications of Motivational Interviewing series, edited by Stephen Rollnick, William R.
