Holding clients accountable using Motivational Interviewing? MI Center for Change

Описание: A past training participant reached out to pick my brain about how keeping clients accountable fits (or doesn’t fit) with MI. She expressed frustration about clients trying to place the blame on us (providers) for what’s not working for them.

This happens, doesn’t it? “I’m coming to you to help me and you’re not helping me,” we hear, as we watch a client not taking action steps to do their part. So frustrating!!

How do we keep that responsibility for change in the hands of clients, rather than us? Let’s first look at accountability to WHAT.

The problem may be that clients are not being accountable to program rules or expectations. Or, accountable to the goals they set for themselves.

Let’s talk about situation #1 first: A client is not being accountable to program rules or expectations.
