1 The benefits of MI in group therapy

Motivational Interviewing (MI) can offer several benefits for both the group members and the facilitator in group therapy. For the group members, MI can help them feel heard and respected, express their thoughts and feelings without judgment or pressure, identify their own reasons and goals for change, enhance their self-efficacy and confidence, learn from the experiences of others, and support and motivate each other in a positive way. For the facilitator, MI can help them build rapport with the group members, foster a safe and supportive environment, engage and retain the group members, elicit and reinforce change talk, manage resistance and discord, and guide the group members through the stages of change.

I have witnessed a huge positive change in people with low self-esteem and experienced traumatic incidents. They feel they can share the most painful events post which they feel heard, healed, and motivated to keep moving ahead in life. They start thinking of a purpose in their life to achieve.

MI is a great tool for demotivated organization . I experienced it recently in an organization , the financial head of organization told in a meeting that we are not able to reach ROI and wanted solution , I did a strategic planning of increasing the revenue to double by motivating manpower and reducing work man force and it happened Interviewing manpower I found that promotion and salary are main criteria of their lower moral so I asked organization to increase salary of those who deserve and promote them who are awaited and did a cost cutting by reducing extra manpower and some facilities. So the productivity increased and fixed cost was same but profit increased

In my opinion the most powerful effect of this is that people learn that things can be different. I have seen many people carry gruesome traumas that they did not even realize are trauma because they have gotten used to carrying it. It’s powerful to understand that just because you can carry something or tolerate it, doesn’t mean it is ok to do so.

2 The challenges of MI in group therapy

MI can also present some challenges for the facilitator in group therapy, such as balancing individual and group needs, adapting to the diversity of the group, and handling different levels of motivation. Furthermore, potential conflicts and disruptions need to be managed, and the focus and structure of the group must be maintained. To overcome these obstacles, the facilitator must be flexible, creative, and responsive to the group situation. Additionally, they should have a clear plan and purpose for the group, as well as a set of ground rules and expectations. Evaluating the progress and outcomes of the group is also important.

3 The principles of MI in group therapy

The principles of MI in group therapy are the same as those in individual therapy. Expressing empathy, such as showing genuine interest and curiosity in the group members and validating their emotions and experiences, is key. Additionally, it is important to help the group members recognize the gap between their current situation and their desired situation, and to explore their ambivalence when resistance is encountered. Lastly, it is essential to encourage the group members to believe in their ability to change, affirm their strengths and efforts, and provide them with choices and options.

4 The techniques of MI in group therapy

The techniques of MI in group therapy are similar to those in individual therapy, but they need to be adapted to the group context. Open-ended questions should be asked to invite the group members to share their thoughts and feelings, affirmations should be given to recognize their achievements and values, reflections should be used to show that you are listening and check your understanding, summaries should be provided to link their ideas and emphasize their change talk, and elicit-provide-elicit should be used before providing any information or advice, followed by asking for feedback and reaction.

5 The strategies of MI in group therapy

The strategies of MI in group therapy are ways to enhance the effectiveness and efficiency of the group. Pre-group screening and orientation is used to assess the suitability and readiness of the group members, and inform them about the goals and format of the group. Establishing a set of rules and expectations, such as confidentiality, respect, attendance, and participation, is also important. Each session should start with a brief round of sharing and feedback from the group members to create a sense of connection and closure. Additionally, each session should be planned with a clear topic and objective, as well as interactive activities, such as role-plays, scenarios, or exercises. Finally, feedback and evaluation should be provided to the group members to monitor their progress and satisfaction, so that adjustments can be made accordingly.

Breaking larger goal strategy in session is an building block strategy of development . Feed back and evaluation are individual characteristics generally focus on gap or weakness needs to be strategically planned before expression of communication to maximize development . A public announcement may or may not be effective demanding on situation but individual expression may resolve many problems related to it
