Some people need this, once unstuck, no longer immobilized by conflicting motivations, they have the skill and resources they need in order to make a lasting change

- Important to people who are reluctant to change and endure ambivalent in changing

- For others, motivational interviewing is a prelude to treatment

- It creates openness to change which paves way for further therapeutic work

- Responsibility for change relies on the individual

- This does not denote that therapists are powerless or helpless, they exert a lot of influence

- The strategies are more persuasive than coercive, more supportive than argumentative ( the therapist creates a conducive environment for change)

- The therapist is increasing client’s intrinsic motivation, so that change arises from within rather than being imposed from without

- Done properly, client presents the argument for change, rather than therapist.

- Motivation interviewing employs a variety of strategies especially derived from person centered therapy

- Counselor may appear relatively active

- But the motivational interviewing proceeds with a strong sense of purpose, clear strategies and skills for pursuing that purpose and a sense of timing to intervene in particular ways at particular moments.
