Abstract
Motivation is a dynamic process that is affected by interpersonal interactions. A fundamental component of treatment is to strengthen the client’s motivation for change. The objectives of this chapter are to introduce the client to the concept of stages of change and motivation for change, to help the client identify his or her current stage of change and the issues to address in recovery, to review strategies to help the client deal with low motivation, and to identify therapy-sabotaging behaviors and positive coping strategies.
