191 | Motivational Interviewing Role Play 1

Today we give you a role play where Dr. Daniel Mullin takes on the part of a neuropsychologist who is engaging in motivational interviewing with a patient who is considering a behavior change. The patient is played by Ryan and the behavior change is whether or not to use a continuous positive airway pressure, or CPAP device, as a treatment for sleep apnea. Following the role play is a debriefing where we highlight important aspects of the MI process. We spoke with Dan in our prior episode (#190) about the ins and outs of motivational interviewing, which you could listen to before or after this role play.
