  1. Active Listening and Motivational Interviewing

  2. Purpose • Minimize resistance to change • Elicit “change talk” • Explore and resolve ambivalence • Nurture hope and confidence Wrestling vs dancing

  3. Stages of Change The stages describe a person’s motivational readiness or progress towards modifying the problem behaviour Precontemplation: not considering behavior change in the next 6 months; may not be aware a problem exists Contemplation: seriously considering behavior change in the next 6 months

  4. Stages of Change cont’d Preparation: planning behavior change in the next 30 days Action: the first 6 months of behavior change Maintenance: behavior changed for more than 6 months Relapse: transition to an earlier stage

  5. Change Talk Listen for indications of readiness to change in the client’s language. Phrases to listen for include: • “I want to…” • “I can…” • “There are good reasons to…” • “I really need to…” • “I started…” When you hear change talk: reflect, reinforce and ask for more!

  6. Questions that will encourage change talk • “What step could you take immediately that would make the greatest difference in your life?” • “If nothing changes, what might happen?” • “Suppose that you did succeed and are looking back on it now: What is most likely to have worked? How did it happen?” • “If you don’t feel ready for change, what would need to happen for you to think about changing?”

  7. Conversational Barriers • Pressuring • Criticizing • Directing • Talking down to • Shaming • Scolding • Confronting • Persuading • Nagging • Interrupting • Ordering • Judging Don’t try to fix things, ‘set someone right’, or get them to ‘face up to reality’!

  8. Active Listening: OARS • Open-ended questions • Example? • Affirms the client • Positive or complimentary statements • Reflective listening • State what you heard the client say • Summaries • Summarize the client’s conversation

  9. More on Reflective Listening Reflections have the effect of encouraging the other person to elaborate, amplify, confirm or correct Good reflective statement openings: • “So you feel…” • “You’re wondering if…” • “It sounds like you…” • “So you…” Types of reflection: • Repeating (repeat part of what the speaker said, use synonyms) • Rephrasing (use new words) • Paraphrasing (make a guess as to unspoken or hidden meaning) • Reflect feelings (type of paraphrase that speaks to emotional meaning)

  10. The 10 Minute Interview • Create focus • “What change would give you the greatest return?” • Build motivation • “How important is it for you to make this change?” • “What will happen if you don’t make this change?” • Summarize the big picture • “So you want to X because Y. Z will happen if you don’t make this change.” • Ask transition questions • “What happens next?”
