Yours was the only site I could find that really explored it. Do you know of any others who are looking at this in a systematic way? I noticed you studied with Tom Bien. Is he doing any work with people using mindfulness, motivational interviewing, and cognitive therapy. It seems like this could be a great way to work with populations in making health behavior change. As an aside, I am also interested in the philosophy of Ayn Rand. It is rare to find someone with similiar interests. This connection with motivational interviewing and meditation seems profound. Yours was the only site I could find that really explored it.

I have never considered MI to assist these clients. In regards to negative thoughts i can see how MI could be effective. With paranoia I am not so easily convinced. i think this is an interesting concept. i have encountered clients that seem to have some ambivalence about changing.
