ObjectivesLearn how to construct a
conversation with patients to influence their receptiveness to consider changing problematicor risky behaviours while not evoking resistance using Motivational Interviewing techniques
![Page 3: Using Motivational Interviewing Techniques to Help Patients to Change Risky/Problem Behaviours Linda Carter Sobell, Ph.D., ABPP Nova Southeastern University](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110206/56649d0c5503460f949e1282/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Constructing a Conversation with Patients
• WHY USE MI TECHNIQUES? So patients feel comfortable discussing their risky problematic behaviours with you
• HOW DO YOU APPROACH THEM? • Present information in non
judgmental, neutral context about risks of continuing the behaviour vs. benefits of changing
• INTENT: Increase a patient’s commitment to consider changing
![Page 4: Using Motivational Interviewing Techniques to Help Patients to Change Risky/Problem Behaviours Linda Carter Sobell, Ph.D., ABPP Nova Southeastern University](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110206/56649d0c5503460f949e1282/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Motivational Interviewing New Interviewing Style
• FOR WHOM? Patients ambivalent about changing
• WHY? To build rapport • GOAL: Help patients explore and
resolve ambivalence about changing• HOW: In a manner likely to increase a
patient’s motivation to change• AIM: Elicit reasons for changing from
patients vs. confronting or telling them to change
![Page 5: Using Motivational Interviewing Techniques to Help Patients to Change Risky/Problem Behaviours Linda Carter Sobell, Ph.D., ABPP Nova Southeastern University](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110206/56649d0c5503460f949e1282/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Motivational Interviewing
Patient-centered, directive method for eliciting intrinsic motivation to change, by exploring and resolving a patient’s ambivalence to change using reflective listening
![Page 6: Using Motivational Interviewing Techniques to Help Patients to Change Risky/Problem Behaviours Linda Carter Sobell, Ph.D., ABPP Nova Southeastern University](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110206/56649d0c5503460f949e1282/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Focus ofMotivational Interviewing
• Patient’s concerns and beliefs• Explore ambivalence about
changing in manner that increases motivation to changing without invoking resistance
• MI gives patients sense of empowerment
![Page 7: Using Motivational Interviewing Techniques to Help Patients to Change Risky/Problem Behaviours Linda Carter Sobell, Ph.D., ABPP Nova Southeastern University](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110206/56649d0c5503460f949e1282/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Motivational Interviewing• Developed early 1980s• Bill Miller (US) and Steve
Rollnick (UK)• Initially for substance
abusers• Why did it develop?• High dropout, high relapse
rates, and poor outcomes
![Page 8: Using Motivational Interviewing Techniques to Help Patients to Change Risky/Problem Behaviours Linda Carter Sobell, Ph.D., ABPP Nova Southeastern University](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110206/56649d0c5503460f949e1282/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Motivational Interviewing: Common Currency
• Over past 20 years, MI has had wide application to variety behavioural domains and patient populations
• Today practitioners use MI with all types of patients and problems (e.g., dietary and medication compliance problems-- hypertension, asthma, insulin dependent diabetes to eating disorders to schizophrenia to flossing)
• > 150 clinical studies• Today MI “COMMON CURRENCY”
among Health Care Practitioners
![Page 9: Using Motivational Interviewing Techniques to Help Patients to Change Risky/Problem Behaviours Linda Carter Sobell, Ph.D., ABPP Nova Southeastern University](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110206/56649d0c5503460f949e1282/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
New View of MotivationConceptualized As
• STATE of Readiness to Change• Can vary from situation to situation
• Dynamic, fluctuating and a modifiable state
• Importantly, can be influenced by Practitioner’s interaction style
![Page 10: Using Motivational Interviewing Techniques to Help Patients to Change Risky/Problem Behaviours Linda Carter Sobell, Ph.D., ABPP Nova Southeastern University](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110206/56649d0c5503460f949e1282/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
EMPATHY KEY MI FEATURE
• WHY? High levels of empathy associated with positive patient outcomes
• Key to expressing empathy through Reflective Listening
• Listening in a reflective manner demonstrates an understanding of patients and validates their concerns “It sounds like you are ambivalent
about changing (insert behaviour)”
![Page 11: Using Motivational Interviewing Techniques to Help Patients to Change Risky/Problem Behaviours Linda Carter Sobell, Ph.D., ABPP Nova Southeastern University](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110206/56649d0c5503460f949e1282/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Focus: Eliciting Change Talk
• HOW: Arguments for changing elicited from patients
• You are (insert problem or concern), what will happen if you don’t change (insert behaviour) in (use time frame if you want)
• Example 1: “You’re 55 & seem to be having difficulty breathing. What will happen in 5 years if you continue to smoke.
• Example 2:“I sounds like you are not happy with having to take you insulin. What do you know about what might happen if you don’t take it regularly?
![Page 12: Using Motivational Interviewing Techniques to Help Patients to Change Risky/Problem Behaviours Linda Carter Sobell, Ph.D., ABPP Nova Southeastern University](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110206/56649d0c5503460f949e1282/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Tone of Motivational Interviewing
• Nonjudgmental, nonconfrontational, empathic, supportive climate where patients can discuss good and less good things related to changing (insert behaviour).
• Inquisitive Tone allows you to address discrepancies between what patients say and do without engendering defensiveness
• “Help me to understand on the one hand you’re coughing, having trouble breathing and on the other hand you say cigarettes are not causing you any problems.”
• RESPECTFUL APPROACH
![Page 13: Using Motivational Interviewing Techniques to Help Patients to Change Risky/Problem Behaviours Linda Carter Sobell, Ph.D., ABPP Nova Southeastern University](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110206/56649d0c5503460f949e1282/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Motivational InterviewingTwo Key Components
• STYLE: How you say it• CONTENT: What you say • Critical Components for
influencing receptiveness to consider changing
![Page 14: Using Motivational Interviewing Techniques to Help Patients to Change Risky/Problem Behaviours Linda Carter Sobell, Ph.D., ABPP Nova Southeastern University](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110206/56649d0c5503460f949e1282/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
STYLE: How You Say It
Use an Empathic, Nonjudgmental, Nonconfrontational, Supportive Manner
![Page 15: Using Motivational Interviewing Techniques to Help Patients to Change Risky/Problem Behaviours Linda Carter Sobell, Ph.D., ABPP Nova Southeastern University](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110206/56649d0c5503460f949e1282/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
CONTENT: What You Say
“Do you floss?” vs. “What are the good and less good things about flossing?”
“Why are you still smoking?” vs. “It sounds like you are ambivalent about quitting.”
![Page 16: Using Motivational Interviewing Techniques to Help Patients to Change Risky/Problem Behaviours Linda Carter Sobell, Ph.D., ABPP Nova Southeastern University](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110206/56649d0c5503460f949e1282/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
MI and Non-MI Comparison Exercise
Short Role Play Exercise: Compare and contrast effectiveness of talking with a smoker about quitting smoking using two interviewing approaches: Non MI and MI
![Page 17: Using Motivational Interviewing Techniques to Help Patients to Change Risky/Problem Behaviours Linda Carter Sobell, Ph.D., ABPP Nova Southeastern University](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110206/56649d0c5503460f949e1282/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
1st Role Play
90 seconds• Role Play #1: Divide into pairs; one
person is Health Care Provider (HCP) and one is Patient (PT)
• HCP: Read questions as they appear
• PT: Answer in any way• Then we will evaluate how it felt• DO NOT GO TO ROLE PLAY #2

•Which skit is more likely to result in the patient quitting smoking?•Why?
![Page 30: Using Motivational Interviewing Techniques to Help Patients to Change Risky/Problem Behaviours Linda Carter Sobell, Ph.D., ABPP Nova Southeastern University](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110206/56649d0c5503460f949e1282/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Workshop FocusKey MI Techniques
• ASKING PERMISSION to discuss target change behaviour or for providing information about it
• REFLECTING what patients say• NORMALIZING• Using DECISIONAL BALANCING• Using READINESS RULERS to
assess readiness to change• Patients GIVE VOICE to changing
![Page 31: Using Motivational Interviewing Techniques to Help Patients to Change Risky/Problem Behaviours Linda Carter Sobell, Ph.D., ABPP Nova Southeastern University](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110206/56649d0c5503460f949e1282/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Asking Permission• “Do you mind if we talk about your
(insert behaviour)” • Communicates respect for patients; more
likely to get them talking about quitting• “Tell me a bit about your alcohol use, any
quit attempts, how has it affected your health?”
• “Would you be interested in learning more about how how alcohol can affect your hypertension?”
![Page 32: Using Motivational Interviewing Techniques to Help Patients to Change Risky/Problem Behaviours Linda Carter Sobell, Ph.D., ABPP Nova Southeastern University](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110206/56649d0c5503460f949e1282/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
VALUE OF ASKING PERMISSION
• Major MI technique with patients• Provides opportunity to discuss patient’s
behaviour when not presenting problem (e.g., coming for physical or blood pressure check) and you want to talk about how exercise, diet, smoking can affect their overall health
• Allows conversation to continue even if patient not thinking of changing
• Respectful
![Page 33: Using Motivational Interviewing Techniques to Help Patients to Change Risky/Problem Behaviours Linda Carter Sobell, Ph.D., ABPP Nova Southeastern University](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110206/56649d0c5503460f949e1282/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Motivational Interviewing Creates an Understanding of Why People Do What They Do
![Page 34: Using Motivational Interviewing Techniques to Help Patients to Change Risky/Problem Behaviours Linda Carter Sobell, Ph.D., ABPP Nova Southeastern University](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110206/56649d0c5503460f949e1282/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Often Difficult to Understand Why Patients Continue to Engage In Problematic/Risky Behaviours
• Practitioners mostly see negatives — death, health problems, divorces
• Rarely, do we SEE or TALK about good things about the behaviour from patient’s perspective
• MI recognizes that MOST behaviour has GOOD and LESS GOOD THINGS that maintain it
![Page 35: Using Motivational Interviewing Techniques to Help Patients to Change Risky/Problem Behaviours Linda Carter Sobell, Ph.D., ABPP Nova Southeastern University](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110206/56649d0c5503460f949e1282/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
What Can be Done to Help Patients Consider Changing?
• Get patients to explore their emotional attachment to their behaviour — to look at the good things they get from it and then the less good things
• Remember they’re ambivalent!
![Page 36: Using Motivational Interviewing Techniques to Help Patients to Change Risky/Problem Behaviours Linda Carter Sobell, Ph.D., ABPP Nova Southeastern University](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110206/56649d0c5503460f949e1282/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Most People, Not Just Patients, Ambivalent About Changing
• AMBIVALENCE critical concept in MI• Working with ambivalence is working
with HEART of the problem• Ambivalence normal everyday
occurrence• How many of you have ever made
New Year’s Resolution?
![Page 37: Using Motivational Interviewing Techniques to Help Patients to Change Risky/Problem Behaviours Linda Carter Sobell, Ph.D., ABPP Nova Southeastern University](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110206/56649d0c5503460f949e1282/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
AMBIVALENCE IS NOT
• Reluctance to do something• Heightened psychological
conflict about choosing between two courses of action
• Continue Behaviour vs. Changing Behaviour
• Ambivalence difficult to resolve each side has costs & benefits
![Page 38: Using Motivational Interviewing Techniques to Help Patients to Change Risky/Problem Behaviours Linda Carter Sobell, Ph.D., ABPP Nova Southeastern University](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110206/56649d0c5503460f949e1282/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)

Ambivalence is a Powerful Emotion!
From the movie “Girl Interrupted” Vanessa Redgrave (Psychiatrist):
“How do you feel about your behaviour….?”
Winona Ryder (Client): “Ambivalent”
Redgrave: “That’s a pretty powerful emotion, let’s explore that together.”
![Page 40: Using Motivational Interviewing Techniques to Help Patients to Change Risky/Problem Behaviours Linda Carter Sobell, Ph.D., ABPP Nova Southeastern University](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110206/56649d0c5503460f949e1282/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
Decisional BalancingHelping Patients to Consider Changing
![Page 41: Using Motivational Interviewing Techniques to Help Patients to Change Risky/Problem Behaviours Linda Carter Sobell, Ph.D., ABPP Nova Southeastern University](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110206/56649d0c5503460f949e1282/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
Decisional Balancing• Can discuss problem risky
behaviours without suggesting its a problem
• Asking about good things creates SAFE context to then talk about “less good things”
• Allows Practitioners to sound credible as they VALIDATE a patient’s behaviour (good things)
![Page 42: Using Motivational Interviewing Techniques to Help Patients to Change Risky/Problem Behaviours Linda Carter Sobell, Ph.D., ABPP Nova Southeastern University](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110206/56649d0c5503460f949e1282/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
Asking About Good and Less Good Things About Smoking
• “Tell me some of the good things about insert behaviour.”
• “Tell me some of the less good or not so good things about insert behaviour.”
• “What will your life be like if you continue engaging in insert behaviour for the next 5 years?”
• “How would your life be different if you did change?”
![Page 43: Using Motivational Interviewing Techniques to Help Patients to Change Risky/Problem Behaviours Linda Carter Sobell, Ph.D., ABPP Nova Southeastern University](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110206/56649d0c5503460f949e1282/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
VALUE OF DECISIONAL BALANCING
• Explores good things and less good things related to the problematic/risky behaviour
• Addresses patient’s ambivalence about changing
• Goal: Tip scale in favor of changing
![Page 44: Using Motivational Interviewing Techniques to Help Patients to Change Risky/Problem Behaviours Linda Carter Sobell, Ph.D., ABPP Nova Southeastern University](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110206/56649d0c5503460f949e1282/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
READINESS RULERSAssessing Readiness to
CHANGE
Definitely NOT Ready Definitely Ready To Change To Change
![Page 45: Using Motivational Interviewing Techniques to Help Patients to Change Risky/Problem Behaviours Linda Carter Sobell, Ph.D., ABPP Nova Southeastern University](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110206/56649d0c5503460f949e1282/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
Using Readiness Rulers
• On a scale from 1 to 10, where 1 is Definitely Not Ready to Change & 10 is Definitely Ready to Change, what # best reflects how READY you area at the PRESENT TIME to change? Patient says 5
•On this same scale, where were you 6 months ago? Patient says 2
•How did you go from 2 to 5 (# 6 mo-NOW)?•What would it take for you to change?•What would be best outcome if you
change?
![Page 46: Using Motivational Interviewing Techniques to Help Patients to Change Risky/Problem Behaviours Linda Carter Sobell, Ph.D., ABPP Nova Southeastern University](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110206/56649d0c5503460f949e1282/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)
VALUE OF USING READINESS RULERS
• Patients at different levels of readiness to change
• Assess patient’s readiness to change
• Helps Practitioners recognize and deal with a patient’s ambivalence
• Allows patients to give voice to changing: “Where are you now. Where were you 6 months ago.”
![Page 47: Using Motivational Interviewing Techniques to Help Patients to Change Risky/Problem Behaviours Linda Carter Sobell, Ph.D., ABPP Nova Southeastern University](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110206/56649d0c5503460f949e1282/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)
Motivational Interviewing Requires a Special Type of Listening of the Kind We Don’t Normally Do
![Page 48: Using Motivational Interviewing Techniques to Help Patients to Change Risky/Problem Behaviours Linda Carter Sobell, Ph.D., ABPP Nova Southeastern University](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110206/56649d0c5503460f949e1282/html5/thumbnails/48.jpg)
REFLECTIVE LISTENING• Primary way of responding to patients• After patient speaks Practitioner
paraphrases the patient’s comments• “I get the sense that you are wanting
to change, but are concerned about gaining weight”
• “It seems there is a lot of pressure for you to change, but you are not sure you can do it because you have tried before. What have you tried before?”
![Page 49: Using Motivational Interviewing Techniques to Help Patients to Change Risky/Problem Behaviours Linda Carter Sobell, Ph.D., ABPP Nova Southeastern University](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110206/56649d0c5503460f949e1282/html5/thumbnails/49.jpg)
REFLECTIVE LISTENINGMore Examples
• “What I hear you saying is that insert behaviour is not causing you any problems now. What might it take for you to change?”
• “So what I hear you saying is that you know that insert behaviour is not good for you, but you are not experiencing any serious consequences that you are aware of. What do you know about the long-term consequences of insert behaviour over the next 5 years?”
![Page 50: Using Motivational Interviewing Techniques to Help Patients to Change Risky/Problem Behaviours Linda Carter Sobell, Ph.D., ABPP Nova Southeastern University](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110206/56649d0c5503460f949e1282/html5/thumbnails/50.jpg)
Normalizing• Communicates to patients that
difficulty in changing is not uncommon — others have had similar experiences
• “Many women report feeling like you, they want to quit for the health of their baby, but find it difficult.”
• “That is not unusual, many people report making several attempts.”
• “A lot of people are concerned about gaining weight when quitting.”
![Page 51: Using Motivational Interviewing Techniques to Help Patients to Change Risky/Problem Behaviours Linda Carter Sobell, Ph.D., ABPP Nova Southeastern University](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110206/56649d0c5503460f949e1282/html5/thumbnails/51.jpg)
VALUE OF REFLECTIONS AND NORMALIZING
• REFLECTIONS validate what patients are feeling
• REFLECTING back what patients say indicates you understood what they said
• NORMALIZING communicates that difficulty changing is not uncommon

Simple Advice “Being Told” vs. MI Advice Strategies
• Traditionally, Practitioners encourage changing using Simple Advice
• “If you don’t stop….. this will happen……health consequences”
• Research shows effectiveness of simple advice very limited — only 5% to 10% people likely to change
• WHY? Most people don’t like being “told what to do”

MI Alternatives to Simple Advice
• Offer relevant new information in neutral, nonjudgmental, sensitive manner
• Ask Permission: “Do you mind if we spend a few minutes talking about your insert behaviour?
• Ask: “What do you know about how behaviour affects your health?”……your unborn child?” ……your teeth and gums?”
