 How to conduct motivation interviewing in psychotherapy? How to overcome the challenge in this therapy process?

CEBP invited Dr Gordon Cheng to conduct following lecture regarding to clinical psychotherapy sharing his cases and studies. 

Motivation interviewing is an approach of psychotherapy. In real-life psychotherapy, therapists often encounter clients who are simultaneously wanting and not wanting to make change. This ambivalence can pose a challenge for therapists who may feel pressured to convince the clients to do “the right thing”. The therapy style of motivational interviewing addresses this challenge by adopting a guiding approach in therapy. It involves the processes of engaging, focusing, evoking, and planning for the purpose of facilitating people to make meaningful changes in life. This lecture is a practical introduction for students on these important therapy processes.
