Instead, it emphasizes the importance of the patient's thoughts, feelings, imagery, attitudes, and hopes. It is based on the assumption that overt behavioral and emotional responses result from cognitive processes.

SN Motivational interviewing is a style of therapeutic intervention designed to strengthen and consolidate a patient's commitment to change. It is compatible with a variety of therapeutic approaches. It focuses on helping clients resolve their ambivalence toward behavior change and getting them moving along a path to change. The overall goal is to increase the client's intrinsic motivation, so that changes arise from within rather than being imposed from without.

Treatment is typically conducted in a group format, with the group focusing on relationship issues. Like psychoanalytic approaches, however, the focus of treatment is on relationship issues, and it is assumed that substance use will become less of a problem if relationship conflicts are resolved.

      Contemplation, in which the individual is aware of the problem and thinking about change but has not made a serious commitment to change.
      Preparation, in which the individual may have made small inroads into the behavior change but has not reached a level of effective action.
      Action, in which the individual modifies behavior, experiences, or environment to overcome the behavior.
      Maintenance, which focuses on relapse prevention and consolidation of the accomplishments of the action phase.
