#Therapy #MentalHealth

[STRONG STAR Training Initiative @STRONGSTARTrain]

Motivational Interviewing (MI) is a practical, client-centered counseling approach that helps people explore and strengthen their own reasons for change.

Here are three key reasons to start using MI with your clients ⤵️

[STRONG STAR Training Initiative @STRONGSTARTrain]

1. It’s especially useful when clients feel stuck or ambivalent about treatment, offering a supportive space to explore their goals. 🎯

2. MI meets clients where they are, promoting progress at their own pace and in their own way. 🌱
