This Is How Addiction Counselors Know When Someone Is Ready To Get Sober
Addiction counselors use a specialized technique called Motivational Interviewing to help move people through the stages of change. Part of that technique is knowing how to recognize and respond to "change talk." These are some common examples of change talk that indicate someone is close to making a big change in their addictive behavior.
