What really drives us to change? In this episode of the 'Counselor Toolbox Podcast', Dr. Dawn-Elise Snipes unpacks five motivational enhancement techniques that can make a world of difference in addiction and mental health counseling.

Snipes dives into how understanding these dimensions can help counselors, coaches, and companions provide better support for those struggling with addiction and mental health issues. She explores practical tools like decisional balance exercises, flexible pacing, and the ORS acronym (open-ended questions, affirmation, reflective listening, and summarizing) to help clients boost their motivation. Dr. Snipes also highlights the importance of feedback and making informed choices rather than imposing views on clients.
It's a treasure trove of actionable advice that aims to empower both professionals and individuals on their journey to recovery. Whether you're a counselor looking to sharpen your skills or someone seeking to understand the complexities of motivation, this episode offers valuable insights that can help you or your loved ones take meaningful steps towards positive change. Tune in to discover how harnessing motivation can be the key to unlocking a healthier, happier life.
