Motivational Interviewing (MI) is particularly valuable for cbd when ambivalence about change is blocking recovery.
Ambivalence in CBD
People with cbd are often ambivalent about change — part wants relief, part fears the unknown of being without familiar cbd patterns. This is normal, not resistance.
How MI Addresses CBD Ambivalence
MI uses specific techniques to help people explore and resolve their ambivalence about cbd treatment:
- Reflective listening: Hearing and naming both sides of cbd ambivalence
- Decisional balance: Exploring pros and cons of changing vs. staying the same with cbd
- Evoking change talk: Drawing out the person's own reasons for addressing cbd
- Affirming strengths: Highlighting past capacities relevant to cbd recovery
MI in CBD Treatment Settings
MI is integrated into many cbd treatment approaches as an engagement tool. It's particularly useful at the beginning of treatment and when motivation fluctuates.
