I am a Board Certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC); my training allows me to provide medication management, talk therapy, or a combination of both. Personal growth and relief from troubling thoughts and emotions is possible and begins in a judgment-free environment. I believe that meaningful care must consider each person's treatment preferences, whether that involves the traditional psychiatric approach, integrative and complementary options, or a combination of modalities. As a psychiatric provider who believes that one size does not fit all, I make it a priority to educate clients about the multiple treatment approaches available.

As a Christian, I know the challenge you experience deciding to see a psychiatric provider for depression, anxiety; mood or any other mental health problems because you trust in God. I know you are afraid to accept that God would want you to take medications and if you do, you are afraid that you would be doubting that God can heal you. The struggle to make a decision about improving or maintaining mental health is complex, and everyone regardless of religious beliefs struggle with mental health treatment decisions. The fact is, while a lot is being done to eradicate the stigma of mental illness there is still more to be done.

Motivational Interviewing Psychiatrists

How does motivational interviewing work?

Motivational interviewing aims to uncover a person’s internal motivation to change their life. Toward this end, the therapist listens, empathizes, and collaborates with the client based on their perspective; the therapist doesn’t adhere to a predetermined plan for change or impose their viewpoint on the client. Discovering an individual’s most important reasons for change, and guiding them to achieve those changes, can empower people to shift from ambivalence to action.

Is motivational interviewing evidence-based?

Yes, research shows that motivational interviewing can help treat alcohol and substance use — and in different ways such as reducing drinking, reducing resistance, and increasing the likelihood of staying in treatment. Motivational interviewing has also been shown to help people lose weight, adhere to medication regimens, improve diet for those with Type II diabetes, and improve healthy behaviors in children.

How long does motivational interviewing last?

Motivational interviewing is a short-term therapy that can last just one or two sessions. In some cases, motivational interviewing may be used in conjunction with longer-term therapies, but for most people, motivational interviewing is a brief intervention that aims to help patients understand their personal, specific, and internal reasons for changing their life.

What differentiates motivational interviewing from person-centered therapy?

In person-centered therapy, the individual is in the driver’s seat of the treatment process, creating space for them to trust their instincts and arrive at their own solutions. The two approaches are similar because motivational interviewing is also client-centered; however, person-centered therapy is more open-ended while motivational interviewing is somewhat more structured; the goal is to change, and the therapist helps the client specifically discover their internal motivations to modify their behavior.
