Career counseling and lifestyle planning should take into account those salient factors (sociological, educational, physical, economic, and chance) that affect a client’s career development—including a client’s addictive behaviors. Knowledge of a client’s current stage of change can help a counselor conceptualize the tasks necessary for clients to continue on the path toward positive change. Moreover, the four guiding principles of MI—express empathy, develop discrepancy, roll with resistance, and support self-efficacy—can provide a solid foundation for career counseling clients with addictive behaviors. The specific MI counseling techniques introduced in this chapter provide counselors with a repertoire of tools to help them further positive change in clients and avoid the potential pitfalls posed by resistance. |
