Motivational Interviewing (MI)

Empowering You to Make Meaningful, Lasting Change

Motivational Interviewing (MI) is a collaborative, person-centered therapy approach designed to help individuals explore their own motivations for change. Rather than telling you what to do, MI helps you clarify your goals, strengthen self-confidence, and overcome ambivalence that may be holding you back from taking positive steps forward.

At Power of the Mind Psychology, Motivational Interviewing is used to empower you to make changes that align with your values and personal strengths. Whether you’re working to improve your health, manage stress, reduce harmful habits, or increase overall life satisfaction, MI provides a supportive space to discover your own reasons for change—at your own pace.

Benefits of Motivational Interviewing

Motivational Interviewing is especially effective for individuals who feel “stuck” or uncertain about making changes. It can help you:

  • Clarify personal goals and values

  • Increase confidence and readiness to change

  • Address ambivalence or self-doubt

  • Enhance motivation for healthier behaviors

  • Improve emotional well-being and self-awareness

  • Strengthen follow-through on treatment or wellness goals

MI has been shown to be effective for a wide range of concerns, including substance use, anxiety, depression, chronic health conditions, lifestyle changes, and stress management.

What to Expect

In Motivational Interviewing sessions, you and your therapist work together as partners. Through open-ended questions, reflection, and gentle guidance, you’ll explore your own reasons for wanting change—and identify the steps that feel right for you. This approach is nonjudgmental, compassionate, and deeply respectful of your autonomy.

At Power of the Mind Psychology, MI is often integrated with other evidence-based therapies such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) or Mindfulness-Based approaches, depending on your individual needs and goals.
