Abstract

The present study found that autonomous and avoidant help-seeking styles demonstrate opposing relations with positive help-seeking beliefs. Readiness to change may buffer the negative effect of an avoidant help-seeking style on beliefs about professional help. Bolstering readiness to change may facilitate help-seeking for resistant individuals.
