Description

Lewis and Carlson talk to William Miller about motivational interviewing and how it is designed to help people resolve their ambivalence about changing addictive behaviors. The therapist creates an atmosphere that is conducive to change by expressing empathy, helping clients explore the gaps between their current behaviors and the lives they would like to lead, avoiding arguments, rolling with resistance, and using encouragement. Includes footage of an actual counseling session.
