What is Motivational Interviewing?

Motivational Interviewing (MI) is a counseling method that helps people find their own motivation to make positive changes. It's all about having a conversation. A counselor listens and guides, but you are the one who finds the answers.

Imagine sitting down with a friend who really listens. They ask questions that make you think. They help you see things from a new angle. That's what MI does. It's about exploring your thoughts and feelings without judgment.

During MI sessions, you talk about your goals and dreams. The counselor helps you break down big ideas into smaller, manageable steps. You start to see a path forward, one step at a time.

This process can be empowering. You realize that you have the answers within you. You just need a little help to bring them to the surface.

Why Choose Motivational Interviewing?

MI is different from other counseling methods. It's not about giving advice or telling you what to do. Instead, it's about helping you find your own solutions. This makes the changes you make more meaningful and lasting.

People often feel more confident after MI sessions. They see that they have the power to change their lives. This boost in confidence can make a big difference in how you approach challenges.
