What is Motivational Interviewing?
Motivational Interviewing (MI) is a client-centered counseling approach that helps individuals explore and resolve mixed feelings about change. It’s not about pressure – it’s about helping you discover your own motivation for making positive life changes.
Used in addiction treatment and mental health care, MI is a powerful tool when someone feels stuck or unsure. Through guided conversations, therapists help you uncover what matters most and how to align your actions with your values.
MI supports lasting recovery by empowering individuals to make choices that reflect their goals, readiness, and unique journey.

FAQ about Motivational Interviewing
Have questions about the treatment? We’re here to help. Learn about our plans, therapy options, and what to expect during your recovery journey so you can make informed choices.
How does MI differ from traditional therapy?
Unlike directive therapies that provide solutions, MI focuses on collaboration and emphasizes your own motivation for change. The therapist serves as a supportive guide rather than an authority figure, helping you explore your values and choices.
Can MI be used alongside other therapies?
Yes, MI is often integrated with other evidence-based treatments like cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), group therapy, or medication-assisted treatment. It can enhance engagement and improve outcomes by increasing a person’s readiness to participate in broader treatment.
How many MI sessions will I need?
The number of MI sessions depends on your individual needs and treatment plan. Some people benefit from just a few focused sessions, while others may engage in ongoing MI as part of a larger recovery program.
Can MI help prevent relapse?
MI can be a powerful tool in relapse prevention by helping you reconnect with your reasons for recovery. It reinforces your internal motivation and supports you in navigating challenges without losing sight of your goals.
