Motivational Interviewing

Motivational Interviewing (MI) is a counseling approach designed to help individuals resolve their ambivalence about change and enhance their motivation. It involves a collaborative conversation where the counselor expresses empathy, listens actively, and reflects the person’s feelings and thoughts. MI aims to empower individuals to explore their reasons for change, identify their goals, and strengthen their commitment to taking action. By fostering a supportive environment, MI encourages self-discovery and personal responsibility, ultimately leading to positive behavioral changes in areas like health, addiction, and lifestyle.
