Description
Helping people change may be considered the primary goal not only of Christian psychology practice, but also of Christian ministries as well. Motivational interviewing (MI) (Miller & Rollnick, 1991, 2002) is an increasingly empirically supported approach to motivating and helping people change (Hettema, Steele, & Miller, 2005), for the treatment of psychological disorders (Arkowitz, Westra, Miller, & Rollnick, 2008), and health risk prevention and intervention (Rollnick, Miller & Butler, 2008). Because of MI's usefulness in facilitating behavior change across a variety of problem and population areas, and due to its incorporation of what appear to be biblically-sound spiritual concepts and approaches, it may be particularly suitable for application to Christian therapy and church ministry as a whole.
