Motivational Interviewing
There has been considerable research to show that the relationship between the therapist and client accounts for the majority of the variance in therapy outcomes. Motivational interviewing has been found to be an effective approach to treating alcohol and substance abuse disorders and many other mental health and physical health problems. It is a clinical method or style that is effective in assisting clients to make difficult changes in their lives. It is considered a trans-theoretical model as it is compatible with various theoretical approaches. Learning motivational interviewing can improve client's motivation and therapists' ability to connect with their client and build a better therapeutic relationship. Motivational Interviewing is both client centered and directive. The goal is to discover and enhance a client's intrinsic motivation to change. This workshop will review the Stages of Change and introduce the spirit, principles and strategies of the Motivational Interviewing method.
