Motivational interviewing began in a barber shop in Norway.

There are several important elements of the philosophy behind motivational interviewing.

'''1. Client resistance typically is a behavior evoked by environmental conditions'''
MI views denial and resistance as behaviors evoked by environmental conditions, not as traits characteristic of substance abusers. Resistance is primarily viewed as a reaction to the in-session behavior of the counselor. A client's resistance may also be raised before meeting the counselor by other elements of the situation, such as directives from a spouse, employer or judge to seek treatment.

'''Introduction'''

The concept of motivational interviewing evolved from experience in the treatment of problem drinkers, and was first described by Miller (1983) in an article published in Behavioural Psychotherapy. These fundamental concepts and approaches were later elaborated by Miller and Rollnick (1991) in a more detailed description of clinical procedures.

Hi MINTies interested in MI in schools. Find a powerpoint given in Sitges about the work in Chicago and a description about the alternatives to In-School Suspension effort done since 2006. Also, attached are 20 interactive activities (adventure-based counseling/learning) that we use to create an environment conducive for MI sessions. For any questions or for a Policy Brief I authored for the Chicago Teachers' Center on high school retention and the value of MI in lieu of punishment, please feel free to contact me (in English or Spanish).

'''Purpose''': To provide a large audience an initial introduction to motivational interviewing in a relatively brief interactive presentation (30-45 minutes).
Primary goal: To catalyze interest in learning more about MI.

Exercise simultaneously allows trainer to: 1) model the spirit and basic skills/strategies/tools of MI; 2) present bite-size pieces of didactic information (“key elements”) related to MI; and 3) support the audience in personally experiencing a simple motivational interview with a self-identified health behavior.

'''Clinical Use Variations'''

1. Practitioner invites client to read through card sort and select qualities that describe him or her. Using MI communication skills, practitioner facilitates discussion with client regarding why they selected particular qualities, how they are important to him or her, and how they may be used in reaching towards goals or in his or her change efforts.
