Applying Motivational Interviewing in Mobile Addiction Counseling

Mobile addiction has become a growing psychological and behavioural concern affecting children, adolescents, and adults. At Emocare – Counselling & Life Coaching, we apply Motivational Interviewing (MI) as a scientifically proven counselling approach to help individuals regain control over digital habits.

What Is Motivational Interviewing?

Motivational Interviewing is a client-centred, goal-oriented counselling method that strengthens personal motivation for change. It helps individuals explore and resolve ambivalence about behaviour change in a supportive, non-judgmental manner.

Why Use Motivational Interviewing for Mobile Addiction?

• Encourages intrinsic motivation rather than forced control
• Builds self-awareness about digital dependency
• Reduces resistance and defensiveness
• Promotes long-term behavioural change
