Start with the answer
What is motivational interviewing, and why can mixed feelings matter?
Learn more about motivational interviewing and review treatment information for adults coming from Peralta before deciding what clear next steps. Motivational interviewing is a collaborative style of talk that can make room for uncertainty about substance use, recovery, or the next step. It is not an argument, a lecture, or a way to pressure someone into agreeing with another person’s goals.
For some adults, the talk may include what they value, what feels difficult, and what they want to be different. Topics might include relationships, health, responsibilities, independence, or stability. The adult’s own words and priorities should remain central. A discussion of motivational interviewing does not establish a treatment plan, admission, or clinical fit. Those questions need a direct talk with CRP.
A supportive loved one can use a similar respectful approach without trying to act as a clinician. Open questions such as “What feels most important to you right now?” or “What kind of support would feel helpful?” may leave space for an honest answer. Listening without arguing can be useful when there is no immediate danger. If there is overdose concern, severe withdrawal, seizure, breathing trouble, loss of consciousness, suicidal danger, or another urgent danger, call 911 rather than relying on a supportive talk.
Call CRP and take the next step.
The admissions team can listen, explain current outpatient options, and help you begin without requiring you to know every program detail first.

CRP's confirmed treatment destination for a Peralta reader is its Albuquerque location at 11401 Menaul Blvd. NE, Albuquerque, NM 87112. CRP also has a confirmed Las Cruces location. But a Peralta page should not assume which site, if any, may be appropriate for an individual. CRP does not offer telehealth, so any care discussed with the team would be outpatient at a confirmed CRP location.
Before making travel plans, learn what an initial visit may involve, whether an outpatient discussion is the next step, and how often attendance could be discussed if care is considered.
