Introduction to Motivational Interviewing

[@joycebenny9450]

This has been really helpful, this is to just summarise for my future learning: Four principles: Partnership Acceptance Compassion Evocation Skills needed 1 open questions 2 affirmations 3 reflective listening (do not use questions) 4 summarising Four processes 1 engaging - avoid assessing trap, avoid telling them their problem, avoid power difference, labeling 2 focussing 3 evoking -evoking clients own motivation to change 4 planning - most important evoking change talk: some examples : what would be your first step?, why do you want to change?, how might you go about making a change?

[@jazkaatterbury-raeburn4366]

The best basic introduction to MI out there...and I’ve had months of training! Well worth watching and saving for future use.

[@garlicgirl3149]

Man, why is it some people can make things so simple and easy to understand and textbooks live to make jargon so complicated especially if we are to implement this in practice! UGH! Thank you for making it easy.

[@sophiashcherbakova2867]

I can across this video via Reflective Folio Fixer - there's plenty more useful videos there that should help you

[@mikesanchez5955]

Textbooks are given a word quota which is why they are so wordy. Try reading the first sentence of each paragraph only and then going over the important stuff.

[@smittyadventures4188]

I agree. I took the HETI Maine, MI course which requires this video amongst other videos and readings. This was by far the best content.

[@dimariobell8499]

Right!!!!

[@dawnfabbri3154]

The same reason why a person say learning diesel mechanic will do a much better job if he has on hands training instead of going to school and getting it from a book. You get the factual information you really need and not 80% of things you will never use. Your brain retains much more this way.

[@flflores0]

We like to use the acronym PEACE for the spirit of MI.. Partnership, Empathy, Acceptance, Compassion and Evocation

[@sherriecade2837]

I have read through so many definitions and explanations of Motivational Interviewing and this video gets 5 stars!!! Simple and to the point. Grateful!!!

[@KathleenPope]

I am a nursing student and this makes better sense than my tutors do. Its explained in a way that can be easily adopted into my practice. Thank you for your help!!

[@Whatthefk189]

for change talk: Prepatory change talk ( DARN) D - Desire (I want to change) A - Ability (I can change) R - Reason (it's important to change) N - Need ( I Should change) Implementing change talk (CAT) C - Commitment ( I will make change) A - Activation ( I am ready to change) T - Taking Steps (I am taking specific actions to change)

[@susangreenfield4847]

Like these too!

[@elenaermolenko5946]

Thank you!

[@mrsg9929]

He has such a comforting voice and clear way of explaining

[@thomasbrown2956]

This summary of M.I. was outstanding. I recently took part in a M.I. webinar and left it more confused than when I began. The order and pace in which the information was presented was perfect for my learning needs. Thank you!!

[@larryrobbin8092]

This is excellent. Motivational interviewing is very complex, but this presentation is so focused and practical it gives you hope that you can do it. Other presentations are so over whelming that you feel its impossible to do motivational interviewing. Thanks so much!

[@hkohlanyy]

I had to pause the video to THANK you for such a wonderful, helpful, simple, clear, awesome explanation for these basics. And it just happened that I've been practicing most of them with my best friend for years now lol

[@kkraybill]

A very useful, non-jargony description of the spirit, core skills, and flow of Motivational Interviewing. Thanks very much, Bill!

[@kelbrophy6958]

I am a new student to the field and this was recommended reading by my professor. Excellent information , and so helpful in my understanding.

[@samattos1]

Great video, thank you. I've been out of school for some time and just got into a Master's of Counseling program and it seems like the assumption is that most of the students know this material already. I majored in philosophy and only minored in psychology at a school with a HEAVY emphasis on neuropsychology rather than clinical treatment. This is all really helpful and very approachable. Thanks or taking the time to make these videos.

[@susangreenfield4847]

This is the best intro to MI that I have ever heard! Thank you SO much! This will be invaluable in my work with simulation and helping people understand how they may be interviewed! So cool!

[@lindaingle-calloway325]

I can see where motivational interviewing is a really good skill. Talking to someone instead of at someone has its benefits. When you talking at someone you put them at the defense, when you talking to someone you open that discussion up making it possible for them be less defensive and more open about the decisions of their life.

[@tammybradshaw7175]

Awesome video! I struggled for YEARS in finding a good counseling technique! Thank you so much for simplifying basic counseling skills for me! Now, I have a sense of foundation to help people reach their goals!

[@deniesebazemore-gaedeke6757]

Great job. One of the best explanations of MI I've seen.

[@supernanostuff]

I am in a class and this video is 1,000 times better than the one the teacher required this week so THANK YOU! I get it now.

[@millennialbellaTV]

This, when implemented makes an absolute difference in the way any coach or mentor help clients. This is going to be the foundation of my own practice - both as a future nurse and business mentor/coach. Thank you!

[@UNOSGALLOS]

I would like to thank you so much for your video i took 24 hours of MI training this week and the instructor confused me and in my opinion was terrible i was lost and confused. you have saved me and made me relax and understand what MI is all about .thank you greatly

[@SherrillAQuinn]

Well done. Methodical and easy to follow and understand.

[@angelawisniewski7040]

I LOVED my MI class. Thank you Dr.

[@nissafrancis9997]

Thank you Dr,it was excellent and a great resource for me in my social work practice.you are a great teacher and have presented in a simple way to understand MI effectively

[@jbt6007]

Thank you. This is an excellent summary of MI.

[@JoannaWakeley]

Really helpful! I have done so much research which was great, but nothing made the foundational elements quite as simple, memorable, and applicable as this video. Thank you!

[@Ipanemarli]

It is a very clear, first-timers friendly, and informative introduction to MI. Wonderful!

[@eugenemccormick94]

This is a concise, brief and informative work. Thanks Doc for your sharing your knowledge.

[@budskirlee]

thank you! i was having a hard time understanding the concepts in class. you're video has made it easier for me to grasp them.

[@garlicgirl3149]

+budskirlee I so agree with you!

[@magneticlanguagesofudon5499]

Thanks Dr. BIll for some great ideas. Tomorrow I will meet, for the first time, with a doctor who signed up with our language institute to learn better English. I'm in Thailand and have been teaching English for awhile now and it had never occurred to me to find out the true motivation, or lack thereof, of students who come to us to learn English. We always complain about the lack of motivation of some learners in spite of the hefty sums they are paying for our services. I'm thinking now more along the lines of doctor and patient and not teacher and student.

[@jennyzhng9192]

the best MI introduction! thank you so much for that!

[@elia-OB20-21]

I really enjoyed this introduction on Motivational Interviewing. You made it all easy to understand and follow.

[@misstuesy]

Wow, I'm sooo thankful for this share! Can you believe I sat in our college library for 3 hours and researched MI in journals, articles, books, encyclopedia, and nothing about the OARS came up which is referred to in this video as BASIC COUNSELING. I'm so irritated because i'm almost done this semester after taking all the PSY classes and the class i'm in now Intro to Counseling, we've never even discussed OARS nor have we done any client/therapist role playing more than twice. This class is pretty much exactly like my PSY classes, i hope when I grad in august onward to my third year i'll actually learn and practice techniques. Thank you so much for posting... now I can finally end my research paper with more confidence and not just the psychological theory of MI but the basic OARS I should've been taught asap! :D

[@bethanydonovan2690]

Best Winner Wow! Is your degree specifically in counseling psychology? If so, you might want to bring that issue up with your program chair. I am in a master's in counseling psych program, and we covered those basic counseling skills in our first two quarters of the first year. It should be covered right off the bat.

[@chartman2423]

Excellent overview! Clear and complete - succinct summary and definition of MI.

[@caroltyler2001]

very well explained in such a short time!!

[@mariaulici4117]

It is so well explained. Very good material for learning about MI. Thanks for sharing.

[@alexandermccartney718]

You're a bloody legend mate. Nice and clear video :)

[@hefzi-babeula8631]

Awesome & comprehensive explanation! I couldn’t say it better👌🏽 Thanks 🙏🏽

[@ulisappok]

short and clear presentation of MI. So important, and still a rarity in medical procedere. Thank you. I will show it to my students.

[@ivengrowe4783]

The video is clear because of it being explained very well. Thank you for a job well done.

[@HeisFaithful7]

What a great explanation! thank you for your great examples and the clarity! I feel very empowered to use this strategy!

[@alliearias3846]

Thank you, this saved the course of where my life was heading!

[@michaeldurrigan429]

Excellent and thank-you. Garlic girl has a good point. This was a very sound overview and will make digging into a few texts much easier. Also helps being a better therapist! Can hear things in MI recognizable from Rogers, Gestalt, CBT / DBT, Narrative and Solution Focus etc.. Thanks for a very nice and succinct presentation. !

[@daniellekelley7008]

THIS WAS SO HELPFUL, IM SO GLAD YOU MADE THIS VIDEO

[@janetownsend5701]

A wonderful presentation - presents the main elements in a clear, accessible and engaging way that makes sense to the person in the street! Many thanks.

[@KarenThomas-fg6gu]

I learned more from this video than from my lectures! Thank you:)

[@cherieservello4891]

Bill you did a beautiful job with this video. The basics, understanding & summary are excellent! I really was looking for a refresher, and this covered it all. I thank you! I applaud your work. 😊👍

[@chelefrizell8528]

Thank you for creating this extremely insightful video. I am a PMHNP student and found your video to be a wonderfully digestible gamechanger. I now feel more knowledgeable in implementing motivational interviewing thanks to you- Kudos!!!

[@billmatulich]

You are welcome.

[@leilaniahkoi]

Thank you so very much for this wonderful easy to comprehend video. As I am now working at a program that utilizes M.I. and I am about to go into a two training session with a head start and a little bit of confidence thanks to this video. I look forward to watching more from you.

[@davoudderogar4828]

Excellent fluid explanation . Thank you for the great value.

[@sarabidawi1234]

This is fantastic...more videos please!

[@cguzman8511]

Dr M - I appreciate how clearly you laid out your presentation. Your OARS examples are practical and commonly heard with cients. I'm also an educator and would love to use bits of your presentation for my students (giving you full credit of course!). Thank you!

[@toddmoore2132]

thank you bill for a simple but informative introduction to motivation interviewing.

[@jessicafinney246]

Very informational and inspiring. Thank you!

[@113white]

Hi Bill….Cathy Cole fellow MINTie, serving in Botswana in the Peace Corps and focusing on behavior change around hiv…I’m using this video to introduce MI to a group of health mentors So great to have this resource to make my work easier 😅

[@mehtavideo]

Well done Doc. Great job!

[@MamaRaven31]

This was very helpful as I am currently learning how to become a motivational interviewer. Thank you so much for making this video.

[@grantsanders4211]

Brilliant! Very concise and well presented. I personally found it to be very straightforward and easy to understand. Thank you!

[@jaydeeb91]

Nicely done Dr. Short and sweet, yet full of precise information.

[@littleflower23]

I'm only 12 min into video but this is an excellent explanation of MI. Very helpful, thank you Bill. I may share this with the team I work with.

[@Hdbhshyej]

The book has been summarized professionally. ❤

[@AllThingsSheena]

I love the way you define & expound I’m “ambivalence”. 😊

[@imliz100]

Great video. Thank you so much simplifying and summarizing the MI. So much easier to see the entire process. I agree...great teacher.

[@sweetgirlie6736]

Great and easy to follow video

[@talmadgedarden4377]

Great information about motivational interviews!

[@michaelstevens459]

I thought this was very well done. You really did a good job of getting your points across in a straight forward fashion.

[@deniserylander2996]

I really like this intro because it is the most impotant thing foe me to learn and perfect if I am going to be a helpful counselor.

[@CSS916]

This was very helpful. Thank you so much for providing a clear and organized presentation.

[@michaelhunt6388]

I just read 30 pags of the text and it was just words, in a little more than 15 minutes, you made it clear.

[@toujourspur22]

Thank you!! This was so engaging and easy to understand.

[@devakikaren]

Very interesting presentation. Accessible & clear. Thank you.

[@firouzehbuller14]

Excellent! I will share w my colleagues. Thank you.

[@issahlilian3200]

My heart is filled with gratitude as I'm sharing my testimony to the entire universe on how herbal doctor oduntun cured me from herpes virus that has been spreading through my body, I suffered from herpes virus since 2007 I often see symptoms in my private area nd lips, anytime I use acyclovir drugs it will go away then return some months later. it was disheartening since i have been diagnosed but after finding herbalist oduntun and his reviews on instagram @herbalist_oduntun i was convinced that he meant be of great help to me so I contacted him to know more about his herbal products and how I can get it delivered to me here in Nuremberg, He then said that he will deliver the herbal package to me through the ups delivery service with the address I will provide that is after preparing the medication with the roots and herbs ingredients he will purchase from the traditional market, so I keep faith believing that I can be cured completely with what comes from nature since it herbal medicine i took the risk and pay him the amount he requested to get the ingredients he started preparation as soon as I send him the money and submit my home address for the delivery today I'm so happy sharing this to the world 🌍 I'm Issah Lilian From Nuremberg (Germany 🇩🇪) for more information on how to get in touch with herbal doctor oduntun you can reach him on What'sApp:[phone] or his (email:[e-mail]) I'm a living testimony stay safe and stay bless 🙏🏼

[@write2bheard51]

Thank you for sharing your knowledge - very clear and concise.

[@amyredmond7497]

This is great. Thank you so much for sharing it.

[@avanzoer]

Very helpful information and well presented. Than you.

[@sszibler]

I’m going to share this with my NP to potentially help our relationship. Things like procrastination being mistaken for resistance, telling, power, authority, having mutual goals (?), feeling hopeful, change talk and reinforcement are all weak spots. He asserts being an expert in sleep issues as a reason for “telling”, which does cause resistance in me, rather than hearing my concerns. I back off entirely. Ironically this video was introduced to me to help medical students with motivational interviewing.

[@billmatulich]

Yep! The paternalistic approach often generates clients "backing off" despite the information maybe being accurate. More about MI can be learned at my website: www.motivationalinterviewingonline which you could suggest to your NP.

[@AB-ck2qw]

This was very helpful and easy to understand. Thank you.

[@rosiekaplan1733]

Yes useful and helpful. I just learned MI existed yesterday!
