    190 | Motivational Interviewing for Neuropsychologists – A Conversation With Dr. Daniel Mullin

    This conversation explores Motivational Interviewing (MI), a clinical communication style designed to help patients resolve ambivalence and find internal motivation for healthy behavior changes. The discussion contrasts MI's collaborative guiding style with the counterproductive "fixing reflex," where providers mistakenly try to pressure or dictate solutions to patients. We outline the four core processes – engaging, focusing, evoking, and planning – while emphasizing the use of OARS skills: open-ended questions, affirmations, reflections, and summaries. A significant portion of the discussion provides practical strategies for neuropsychologists to adapt these techniques for patients with cognitive impairments or during feedback sessions. Ultimately, we highlight how MI is a humanistic approach that respects patient autonomy and aligns recommendations with an individual's personal values.
