Are you feeling ambivalent about making changes in your life, even if you know they might be good for you? Perhaps you’re struggling with habits, health behaviours, or addiction? At Clarity Health Care, we have therapists trained in Motivational Interviewing in Melbourne (Malvern and Fitzroy) and Hobart (Kingston and Sandy Bay) who use a supportive, collaborative approach to help you explore and resolve this uncertainty.
What is Motivational Interviewing (MI)?
his type of therapy focuses on the relationships and interactions between people, rather than solely on individuals. Motivational Interviewing isn’t about telling you what to do. It’s a guiding style of conversation that helps you tap into your own motivation and commitment to change. It’s based on partnership, acceptance, compassion, and unlocking your reasons and abilities. MI helps you to:
- Explore your feelings about change without judgment.
- Identify discrepancies between your current behaviour and your goals or values.
- Strengthen your confidence in your ability to make changes.
- Develop your own plan for moving forwards when you feel ready.
Importantly, our Motivational Interviewing team in Hobart and Melbourne respects your autonomy and pace.

- Address substance use or addictive behaviours.
