Motivational Interviewing in Addiction Treatment

Description

Motivational Interviewing (MI) developed by clinical psychologists William Miller and Stephen Rollnick is a directive the client-centred approach used to strengthen clients' motivation for positive behaviour change by exploring and resolving feelings of ambivalence. This approach has been established as an evidence-based practice for the treatment of individuals with addiction problems. Clinical trials have found that clients exposed to motivational interviewing (versus more directive treatment interventions) are more likely to enter and complete addiction treatment and have substantially higher abstinence and reduction rates in their substance use.
