Over the last few years, I have removed client resistance from our language during supervision and consultation. This article illustrates that doubts and fears are a normal part of change. Expressing empathy and getting ideas from the client for a path forward is helpful and if we can make it their idea and they are engaged, this is a good start. Small steps and we may not even need action, just engagement and trust that we are on a path towards wellness, I do not know all the answers either, but the professionals, through assessment and resources, can be their guide.

La résistance est une processus normal, qui fait partie du changement. En tant que professionnel, nous avons parfois tendance à critiquer cette résistance et y voir une forme de refus au changement.

L'entretien motivationnel est souvent comparé au tango, où deux partenaires se déplacent ensemble harmonieusement tout en gardant leur liberté de mouvement. Cette métaphore montre l'importance de la collaboration et de l'empathique pour amener au changement.

Always empower the client to be authentically themself. Sometimes clients can feel pressured by outside sources, or they say what they think we want to hear because they are consumed by the pressure to make others happy. Encouraging them to be themself, and empowering whoever they want to be (without judgement) will help encourage them to blossom into their goals.
