How motivational interviewing and online formats work together
Motivational interviewing is a conversational approach that helps people weigh pros and cons and find their own reasons to change. It works well for issues like addiction, ambivalence about change, and building motivation for new habits.Brett’s client-centered style means sessions focus on the person's goals. He asks questions, listens for what matters most, and helps set small, realistic steps. That collaborative process helps tailor the work as needs evolve.
Online therapy offers several practical benefits for this approach. Video calls let the therapist and client read tone and expression during deep conversations. Phone sessions can be useful when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging make it possible to check in between sessions, share short updates, or do brief skills practice without scheduling a full call.
Using these formats, the therapist and client can try different ways of working and pick what fits best. The goal is to match techniques to your schedule, goals, and comfort level so progress happens in ways that feel doable.
