3 Learning objectives Learning about models of behaviour change for short interactions Having conversations about behaviour change what does it feel like when it s us? Reflecting on an example of Motivational Interviewing practice

4 Practice 1 (borrowed from Miller, M. & Rollnick, S. 2014) Work with one other person One will be the speaker One will be the therapist Switch roles when I tell you to reverse

5 Speaker s topic Something about yourself that you: Want to change Need to change Should change Have been thinking about changing But you haven t changed yet (i.e. something you are ambivalent about)

6 Listener Explain why the person should make this change Give at least three specific benefits that would result from this change Tell the person how they could make this change Emphasise how important it is to change Persuade the person to do it If you meet resistance, repeat the above

7 Persuasion: what goes wrong? When worlds collide The righting reflex Ambivalence

8 Normal human reactions to the Invalidated righting reflex Not respected / Not understood/ Not heard Angry / uncomfortable / unable to change Resist Arguing / Discounting / Defensive / Oppositional Denying / Delaying / Justifying Withdraw Disengaged / Disliking / Inattentive Passive / Avoid / Leave / Not return

9 So.. making people feel bad does not help them to change

10 Practice 2 Speaker: same topic Something about yourself that you Want to change Need to change Should change Have been thinking about changing But you haven t changed yet (i.e. something you are ambivalent about)

11 Listener Listen carefully with a goal of understanding the dilemma GIVE NO ADVICE Ask these 4 open questions: 1. Why would you want to make this change 2. How might you go about it in order to succeed? 3. What are the three best reasons for you to do it? 4. On a scale of 0 to 10, how important is it for you to make this change? (and why are you at and not 0?) Give a short summary reflection of the speaker s motivation for change? Then ask so what do you think you will do?.. And listen with interest

12 Normal human responses to a listen / evoke/ empathic style Affirmed Accept Approach Understood / accepted / respected Heard / empowered Open / undefensive Interested / cooperative Talk more / liking Engaged / activated / come back

13 A change of role.. Not wrestling but dancing: You don t have to make change happen (you can t) You don t have to come up with all the answers (you probably don t have the best ones)
