What patients can expect during the first session with me is as follows: the first step is for us to gain better insight into the “What needs to be healed?” and the “How to heal?” roadmap. We will discover what we need to work towards and how we can work towards these goals. We will then create the foundations of our therapeutic relationship by gaining a sense of the therapeutic journey and the directions we need to go towards the patient’s healing journey.

MI is suitable for individuals facing ambivalence about change, whether related to health, habits, relationships, or personal growth. It is effective for adolescents and adults in various settings, including clinical, community, and educational environments.

• To resolve ambivalence and enhance intrinsic motivation for change.
• To help clients identify and overcome barriers to achieving their goals.
• To encourage clients to take ownership of their decisions and actions.

MI is widely effective across diverse contexts, including:

• Addressing substance use and addiction.
