Trauma-Informed Support to Help You Move Forward—One Empowered Choice at a Time

At Hope & Healing Addiction Treatment Centers in Mesa, AZ, we understand that change isn’t always easy—and that readiness looks different for everyone. That’s why we offer Motivational Interviewing (MI) as part of our trauma-informed approach to Addiction and Mental Health Treatment.

Whether you’re feeling uncertain about recovery or struggling to find the motivation to take the next step, Motivational Interviewing can help you uncover your own reasons for change—without pressure, judgment, or shame.

What Is Motivational Interviewing?

Motivational Interviewing (MI) is a client-centered counseling technique designed to help individuals explore ambivalence and build internal motivation for change. Instead of being told what to do, you work collaboratively with your therapist to uncover what matters most to you—and how your actions can align with your values and goals.

MI is especially effective for individuals who feel stuck, resistant, or unsure about recovery, making it an ideal tool for Addiction Treatment and Co-Occurring Mental Health Care. Let Hope & Healing Addiction Treatment Centers help you find your strengths, interests and motivation to help you build a foundation to hope and healing

How Motivational Interviewing Supports Trauma-Informed Healing

Many people living with Addiction or Behavioral Health Issues have experienced Trauma—whether in childhood, relationships, military service, or through chronic stress. Trauma can undermine self-worth, personal agency, and trust, making change feel overwhelming or unsafe.

we use MI through a trauma-informed lens, ensuring that each session promotes

‣ Empowerment – You lead the process. We support you in discovering your own motivation.

‣ Safety – Your story is honored without judgment or pressure.

‣ Collaboration – We walk beside you, not ahead of you.

‣ Choice – Your pace, your plan, your priorities.

This compassionate approach helps clients feel respected and understood—fostering trust and making space for authentic, lasting change.

What Can Motivational Interviewing Help With?

Motivational Interviewing is often used as part of a broader treatment plan and is especially helpful for individuals navigating

‣ Substance Use Disorders (alcohol, opioids, stimulants, marijuana, etc.)

‣ Relapse prevention or ambivalence after past treatment

‣ Co-occurring mental health conditions such as depression, anxiety, PTSD, and bipolar disorder

‣ Readiness for change after intervention or family concern

‣ Low self-efficacy or lack of hope about recovery

In MI sessions, clients are encouraged to explore their beliefs, clarify their values, and build self-confidence in their ability to change—all in a safe, non-confrontational space.
