Motivational Interviewing NS420 Unit 7 Tamara Hein, MPH, RD, LD, CDE

Change is a Choice

Primary Belief The capacity and potential for change and adherence is within every person! “People possess substantial personal expertise and wisdom regarding themselves, and tend to develop in a positive direction, given the proper conditions and support..” Miller and Moyers 2006

Style and Spirit ❖ Warm ❖ Friendly ❖ Collaborative ❖ Respectful – Ask Permission  Positive and Hopeful  Individualized  Eliciting – client does most of the talking  Honoring and Autonomy Paradox of Change – Acceptance allows freedom to consider change versus needing to defend against it

Tipping the balance towards change  Collaboration – partnership  Evoking Discussion Listen more than tell Take Reflection Breaks Express Empathy  Respect Honors patient autonomy Emphasizes capacity versus incapacity Ask Permission Roll with resistance

Change Talk People are more persuaded by what they hear themselves say than by what someone tells them. Self perception theory: Bem, 1972

DARN – Elicits Change Talk Desire – Why do you want to make this change? Ability – How could you do it? Reasons – Why you would make this change? Need – How important is it, Why? Scale of 0-10
