Motivational Interviewing is an effective strategy used by many treatment providers in the behavioral health industry. It lowers the recipients defensiveness, by promoting self reflection and invoking problem solving thinking. Here are some great Motivational Interviewing questions for New Years.

Addiction is an epidemic that affects one in four people that live in America. Yet only about 10% of people who need treatment are receiving it.* Food is the number one addiction in America, with more than 50% of adolescents and adults, struggling with obesity. Nicotine is the second most common addiction in America, with 43 million cigarette smokers. Nearly 17.6 million adults in America are alcoholics, and the use of illicit drugs, specifically marijuana has increased every year since 2008.
