Example text
Well, I really don’t have a schedule now that I think about it—I just wander through the day. COUNSELOR: Your day usually doesn’t have a plan. (reflection) CLIENT: Nope. It just wanders. Sometimes to get me going I have a couple of beers and a cigarette, around 8:30 or so. I go check my garden and then usually have a couple more beers. I get thirsty when I’m pulling weeds and stuff. COUNSELOR: You have a garden—that must be really nice. (affirmation) And taking care of the garden sometimes makes you thirsty; you want a beer.
Probably why I began to drink—the bottle was my friend. COUNSELOR: Feeling like an outsider—the bottle was there for you. CLIENT: Yeah, and I’ve really paid the price. The more I drank, the more I stayed to myself—shut myself off. COUNSELOR: Drinking really kept you from reaching out to people. You’d really like things to be different now. ), the client may have shifted to a more ‘‘intellectual’’ mode of trying to explain or clarify for the counselor’s benefit—so the counselor could ‘‘get it’’—what he or she had meant rather than staying with and exploring more of the topic in the service of increasing the client’s own awareness, understanding, and wisdom.
In the MI approach, the counselor actively listens to and reflects the meaning and feelings conveyed by the client. The accurate expression of empathy by the counselor conveys not only an understanding, but also an acceptance, of the client’s perspective and experience. Thus, the client feels heard and accepted rather than judged or discounted. This element sets the stage for building rapport and creating a safe environment rather than one that pushes for change in a particular direction. The following scenario demonstrates this principle.
