M.I. is a conversation about change. It is a way to help someone, who is caught between different options, to move forward through reflective listening and empathy. Clinically, M.I. is a collaborative, goal-oriented style of communication with particular attention to the language of change. It is designed to strengthen motivation for and commitment to a specific goal by eliciting and exploring the person's own reasons for change (Miller & Rollnick, 2013).
