What is Motivational Interviewing?

Motivational Interviewing is a collaborative and empathetic approach to therapy that seeks to evoke and strengthen a person’s intrinsic motivation for positive change. It operates on the understanding that individuals hold the key to their own transformation, and the therapist’s role is to support and guide this process. Motivational Interviewing helps individuals explore their values, goals, and aspirations through active listening, empathetic understanding, and open-ended questioning. This approach empowers individuals to tap into their inner motivation and take meaningful steps toward achieving their desired outcomes. It is particularly effective for addressing issues related to behavior change, addiction, and personal growth, fostering a sense of autonomy and empowerment in pursuing positive life changes.
