But you can't direct people into change, you can only guide them into change, and Mi teaches us how to do this and is in fact much easier than the way that we may have been taught to communicate with patients, because we don't have to come up with all the answers all the time.
What if there was a way to make recovery feel more achievable for those battling substance use disorders? In this enlightening episode of 'Spero Health Clinical Insights', Dr. Michele Welling, an Addiction Medicine Physician, teams up with host David Hayden to unpack the power of Motivational Interviewing (MI). They discuss how this technique can be a game-changer for both patients and clinicians in the journey to recovery. Dr.
Welling breaks down the theory behind MI and shares practical examples that show its effectiveness in real-world scenarios. She emphasizes the importance of creating a non-judgmental and compassionate space where patients feel heard and understood. This approach not only helps in overcoming resistance but also empowers patients to take charge of their own recovery. Through engaging storytelling, Dr. Welling illustrates how MI can transform the patient-provider relationship, leading to better treatment outcomes.
Whether you're a healthcare provider looking for new strategies or someone interested in understanding more about addiction recovery, this episode offers valuable insights and actionable tips. Tune in to discover how a supportive environment can make all the difference in fostering successful recovery.
