Interviewing (MI)
MI
Motivational Interviewing (MI) is a client-centered therapeutic approach designed to enhance motivation and facilitate change by exploring and resolving ambivalence. It is particularly effective for clients struggling with behavior change, such as those dealing with substance use, eating disorders, or lifestyle modifications. MI fosters a supportive environment where clients can express their thoughts and feelings, empowering them to find their own reasons for change.
The therapist uses open-ended questions, reflective listening, and affirmations to help clients discover and strengthen their intrinsic motivation. If you’re ready to explore your motivations and make meaningful changes in your life, consider scheduling a session with a therapist at Willamette Wellness Center to learn more about how MI can support you.
