Motivational Interviewing (MI)
Empowering Change Through Guided Conversations
Understanding Motivational Interviewing
A Client-Centered Approach to Change
MI is a directive, yet person-centered therapy that focuses on enhancing an individual’s intrinsic motivation to change by addressing their hesitations and reinforcing their commitment to recovery. It is particularly effective for individuals who are resistant to treatment or uncertain about making changes.
Benefits of Motivational Interviewing:
Strengthens Motivation for Change: Helps individuals recognize the need for recovery.
Reduces Resistance to Treatment: Encourages self-driven commitment to healing.
Enhances Decision-Making Abilities: Guides individuals in making positive, lasting choices.
Builds Self-Efficacy and Confidence: Empowers individuals to believe in their ability to change.
Improves Engagement in Treatment: Encourages active participation in the recovery process.
MI is highly effective in addiction treatment, mental health recovery, and behavioral therapy. At Entrust Recovery Center, we specialize in MI techniques to help individuals develop the motivation necessary for lasting change.
