Motivational Interviewing: Tools for Helping with Behavior Change WA AAP Population Health Forum – June 8, 2019 Alicia Dixon Docter, MS, RDN University of Washington Division of Adolescent Medicine/UW LEAH
Introductions Introduce yourself to someone in the room you don’t know really well. Form teams of 3 – you will be working together during the session. • Name • Role • Where from • Pick one topic that you want to work on (personal or work); this will be used throughout
Objectives • Discuss how motivational interviewing can be used to address ambivalence in patient care • Demonstrate at least one method to elicit change talk • Increase your ability to confidently use motivational interviewing techniques in your practice
Case • Maria is a 16 year old coming to see you because parents are concerned about weight loss • You excuse parents from the room • Emphasize confidentiality when speaking with Maria alone • You begin to ask Maria questions. The responses are… • ‘I don’t know’ • Shoulder shrug Now what?
MI: Helps Address Ambivalence • Ambivalence: • Feeling two ways about a thing • Common prior to and during habit change For example: • Difficulty scheduling appointments • Missed appointments • Intervention plans not being followed • Goals of family have little substance • Treatment progress uneven • Family members not forthcoming

Principles of Motivational Interviewing • Instead of the expert clinician directing, there is an active collaborative conversation and joint decision-making process • Evoke from patients what they already have; activate their own motivation • Requires an acceptance that people can and do make decisions about the course of their lives
O.A.R.S. Build rapport Open ended question AffirmationsReflective listening Summary statement Throughout: Ask permission
O.A.R.S.Open-ended Questions Invites person to reflect and elaborate Helps to understand their internal frame of reference Creates impetus for forward movement to help the person explore change
Open-ended To what extent… How often… Tell me about… What, if any,… Closed-ended vsOpen-ended Questions • Closed-ended • Did you… • Can you… • Will you… • Is it…
#1 Practice Open-ended Questions • Speaker: Describe what you are working on • Listener:Goal of understanding the dilemma. Give no advice. • Why might you want to make this change? • How might you go about it, in order to succeed? • What are three reasons to do it? • Observer: Reflect on interaction and provide feedback using worksheet as a guide. • How did it go? • What did you notice (body language, tone, likelihood of change)? • How did the speaker feel? How did the listener feel? • 2-3 minutes each
O.A.R.S.:Affirmations • Statements of recognition about strengths • Helps person feel change is possible • Point out strengths where only failure is perceived by individual • Consider partial successes • Use resistance • Examples: • I see you had breakfast once this week • Although you didn’t succeed, I saw how hard you worked • I see your struggling with this, but it’s shows you are interested in changing because you’re here
#2 Practice Affirmations • Speaker: describe what you have tried so far even if it’s just one or two small things • Listener: Ask open-ended questions in order to uncover something positive & then affirm it. Listener needs to really focus. • Observer: Reflect on interaction and provide feedback using worksheet as a guide. • How did it go? • What did you notice (body language, tone, likelihood of change)? • How did the speaker feel? How did the listener feel? • 3 minutes each
O.A.R.S.:Reflective Listening • Helps you understand what’s working or not • Statement, not question • Trust and rapport will deepen even if you don’t get it “right”
Reflective Listening • Starts with: • So… • Sounds like… • You… • So, one hand…But on the other… • Use 2-3 reflections before moving on to next question • Can be a skill to use when “stuck” • If you are right, emotional intensity of session will deepen. • If wrong or person not ready to deal with, they’ll correct you and the conversation moves forward
#3 Practice Reflective Listening • Speaker: Share with your group the reasons for the changes you want to make. • Listener: Each try a reflective response. • Observer: Reflect on interaction and provide feedback using worksheet as a guide. • How did it go? • What did you notice (body language, tone, likelihood of change)? • How did the speaker feel? How did the listener feel? • 3 minutes each
O.A.R.S.Summaries • Communicates interest in the person and helps develop rapport • Can shift direction if necessary • How to do this: • Begin with announcement that you are about to summarize • Be selective and concise • Note ambivalence • Invitation to correct anything • End with an open–ended question
#3 #4 Practice OARS • Speaker: Describe what you are working on • Listener:Goal of understanding the dilemma using open-ended questions, affirmations, reflective listening and summaries. Refer to handout. • Observer: Reflect on interaction and provide feedback using worksheet as a guide. • How did it go? • What did you notice (body language, tone, likelihood of change)? • How did the speaker feel? How did the listener feel? • 2-3 minutes each
Change Talk • If you hear anything close to: • Desire (want, like, wish) • Ability (could, can, might be able to) • Reasons (argue for change) • Need (ought to, have to, really should) This will open the door to talk about commitment and possible plan/goals.
Elicit-Provide-Elicit (EPE) • Ask permission prior to beginning • Elicit - what the patient already knows and wants to know. • Provide - information in a neutral manner. • Elicit - the patient’s response to, interpretation of the information
Case – an update • You begin by engaging Maria using OARS • Weekly visits over the next few months have lead to… • Eating breakfast as well as more regular meals • Decrease in rate of BMI increase • Spending more time with friends • Significantly reduced household stress!
Reflections on patient care • MI takes practice • It’s easy to go back to ‘old habits’ • Patient engagement is a good indicator of effective MI
How to engage in culturally appropriate care? • What aspects of MI fit with your patient population? • What things might not work? • How might the cultural background of your patients shape the clinical encounter?
