Our calm, private therapy space in Mequon
Motivational Interviewing is a collaborative, goal-oriented approach to therapy that helps you explore mixed feelings, build motivation, and clarify what matters most to you—without pressure, judgment, or being told what you should do.
Rather than focusing on fixing or forcing change, MI supports you in understanding why change feels difficult and how to move forward in a way that feels aligned and sustainable.
You may be noticing:
Feeling conflicted or ambivalent about making changes
Knowing something needs to shift, but feeling unsure where to start
Low motivation, burnout, or difficulty following through
Anxiety around decisions or fear of making the “wrong” choice
Wanting change while also feeling hesitant, overwhelmed, or stuck
Motivational Interviewing helps you gently explore these experiences, strengthen confidence, and move toward change at a pace that feels right for you.
Feeling stuck or unsure about change?
Motivational Interviewing (MI) is a collaborative, client-centered approach that focuses on understanding your perspective, exploring mixed feelings, and strengthening your own motivation for change.
Rather than being told what to do or pushed toward outcomes you’re not ready for, therapy is a space to slow down, reflect, and clarify what matters most to you—at a pace that feels respectful and supportive.
You don’t need to arrive with clear goals or certainty about change. Sessions are flexible and shaped around where you are right now.
In Motivational Interviewing therapy, we may:
Explore ambivalence or conflicting feelings with curiosity and compassion
Clarify values, priorities, and what you want more (or less) of in your life
Identify internal and external barriers to change
Strengthen confidence and readiness for next steps
Support follow-through in ways that feel realistic and self-directed
Revisit goals as your clarity and motivation evolve
Therapy is collaborative, non-judgmental, and focused on helping change feel possible—without pressure or shame.
