What Is MI?
MI
is an evidence-based treatment that is one of the best available to
address ambivalence to change. MI is a conversational approach designed
to help people discover their own interest in considering and making a
positive change in their lives. It helps them express in their own words
their desire for change (i.e., "change-talk") about a number of
personal issues, such as diet; exercise; managing
symptoms of mental illness and physical illness; reducing and
eliminating the use of alcohol, tobacco, and other drugs.
