I took a class on Motivational Interviewing, and read the Motivational interviewing, preparing people for change by Miller and Rollnick. It was amazing and very helpful, I truly believe that it is essential in chemical dependency counseling. This video is worth the hour of listening.
Big fan - long time reader, first time commenting! Many thanks, Dr. Miller, an amazing story that has resulted in changing the face of addiction treatment the world over. And it makes my work kinder and more effective and that helps me sleep better!
We watched this in counseling techniques class at Yakima Valley Community College tonight. My teacher has been going on and on about this technique for the last two quarters; I see why. Smart man.
Important points: MI is brief, 1 to 2 sessions, according to Miller. It is not a course of treatment. This point doesn't lessen its importance, it just spotlights when and how the tool should be used.
While 59 minutes is long to follow, he lays the foundations of Motivational Interviewing and the languaging people who are ready to commit to change use vs. the language of those not intending to change their addictive behaviors.
I wonder if the same applies for mental health. I know people who have had to wait months to get in to see a therapist. Now I am wondering if their treatment would have been more successful had they got in sooner rather than later.
It would be important to recognize MI in more areas than addictions, such as sexual abusers and domestic abusers. That may be more related to other theories and therapies, but you are adding to the stigma when only incorporating chemical addictions.
Is it morally responsible to experiment on those seeking aid with their alcohol dependence by placing them on a 'wait list' purely for research purposes?
Considering that "wait list" happen in real world situations, I fail to see an issue there. That and those placed on wait lists were still checked up on and later offered treatment, as Dr. Miller stated. That and human research studies are subject to ethic board reviews.
It is done among consenting individuals, and research proposals pass through reviews by ethical board. Thanks to the patients who participate in the experimental studies, we can treat our patients better. Not only in psychology but in all fields of medicine.
People dont seem to realize there are variations in addiction/abuse. MI might work fore some clients but others need more of a confrontive style or some other method. You dont treat all cancers with the same treatment. This is an answer to the minnestota modell as i see but we dont need more answers we need a system that sees and threats the varitaions in the indivuduall. Addiction/abuse is also a social sickness that need different methods.
Did you watch the entire tape or have you read any other book on Motivational Interviewing? There is a confrontation period (to change or not to change) so at this stage of the therapy you as the therapist will demonstrate the need for change. I did a entire semester in MI and it is a fantastic theory.

Agreed

I am forever changed. My mind and heart are open. I would like to have seen the slides. I learned much. Thank you for your work.
So great to hear the founder, right to the source!!
Would have really liked to see the powerpoint slides he's presenting!
Kristin Rossi see his other posted speech at university of Chicago on MI and Quantum Change, he has some of these slides
Same here. :(
thanks @@patricklynch9703 ruclips.net/video/2yvuem-QYCo/видео.html
Dr. Miller is brilliant. It is wonderful to follow along the path of how MI was developed.

In the psychosocial rehabilitation & recovery Day Program in which I work, M.I. is indispensible! Thank you for uploading this presentation!
That was so enlightening ! He really understands the essence of being human and helping each other.
Excellent. A great foundation for learning MI.
Thank you Dr. Williams!
I love this video. Thank you for posting it.
Fantastic content. I am looking forward to learning so much more about how to do Motivational Interviewing, with a definite goal of mastering it.
I know it's been said before, but...making the missing slides available would make this video even more fantastic

This is a good summary of MI through the ages. It's an amazing development.
i think a lot of what we now know about psycotherapy is going to fall away and M.I will fall into its place this is a great way to help somebody
Very interesting and helpful in understanding "Motivational Interviewing"!
Thank you for posting this!
I agree - we need the slides so that we can follow his narrative.
Addicts need a lot of encouragement and guidance, too. Once an alcoholic/addict detoxes, they need continued help.
While 59 minutes is long to follow, he lays the foundations of Motivational Interviewing and the languaging people who are ready to commit to change use vs. the language of those not intending to change their addictive behaviors.
I am so excited to learn more about MI and to pass it along! Shira~ The Addiction Show.
Thank you, awesome approach!
he looks like the architect from the matrix. great lecture, learned a lot!
Would love to see the slides that Miller refers to... perhaps he or Columbia could post them on You Tube as well...
Shame we can’t see the slides he’s referring to. Bill is great.

Not seeing the slides was very frustrating. :(

Great! Love it. But I too would like to be able to see the data.
