Motivational Interviewing
Motivational Interviewing (MI) is a client-centered therapeutic approach aimed at boosting an individual’s motivation and readiness for change. It entails a collaborative dialogue between the therapist and the client, where the therapist aids the client in identifying their goals and reasons for desiring behavioral change. MI is frequently employed in outpatient programs for individuals with substance use disorders, helping them overcome ambivalence and resistance to treatment. At PDX Recovery, our therapists utilize MI techniques to build rapport and support clients in discovering their own motivation for recovery.
Verify BenefitsWhat is Motivational Interviewing?
Motivational interviewing (MI) is a therapeutic approach designed to help individuals uncover their own motivation and desire to make positive life changes. This client-centered method encourages people to find their internal drive for change rather than having it imposed upon them.
In an outpatient setting, MI typically involves one-on-one therapy sessions in which a therapist collaborates with the individual to explore their goals, values, and motivations for change. The therapist assists the individual in identifying potential obstacles and developing strategies to overcome them. At PDX Recovery, we integrate MI with other evidence-based therapies to support individuals in overcoming addiction and achieving their recovery objectives.
How Does Motivational Interviewing Help?
Motivational interviewing (MI) supports individuals in making positive life changes by addressing their ambivalence and resistance. By offering a safe, non-judgmental environment, MI allows people to explore their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors, fostering a deeper self-understanding and motivation for change. This approach helps individuals build the confidence needed to implement meaningful changes.
Additionally, MI emphasizes a strong therapeutic relationship between the therapist and the individual, enhancing trust and collaboration throughout the recovery journey. At PDX Recovery, we incorporate MI into our comprehensive care strategy to assist individuals in overcoming addiction and achieving long-term recovery.
