Ohio Counseling Conversations

Conversation 19 - Motivational Interviewing: Change Cannot be Imposed

Ohio Counseling Association Season 2 Episode 19

In this episode of Ohio Counseling Conversations, we are grateful to have been able to speak with Dr. Cynthia Osborn, a counselor educator at Kent State University. In this conversation, Dr. Osborn discusses the power of Motivational Interviewing and the role it may play in supporting those currently struggling with addiction. Dr. Osborn and Dr. Cargill define substance use as a concern that is systemic in nature, and explore what new research has found to be beneficial in addictions counseling and deconstructing what hasn’t worked in the past.
