Satellite Motivational Interviewing in diabetes care: Building patient autonomy and managing ambivalence
Speakers Dr Jeff Breckon, Head of the Behaviour Change Research Group, Advanced Wellbeing Research Centre, Faculty of Health and Wellbeing, Sheffield Hallam University
Satellite Description

Motivational Interviewing (MI; Miller & Rollnick, 2013) is a collaborative conversation style for strengthening a person’s own motivation and commitment to change. It works by exploring an individual's ambivalence about health behaviours using an empathic yet challenging approach blending technical and relational components in a strategic manner (Breckon, 2015). MI is being applied extensively across diabetes services (Chen et al., 2012; Christie & Channon, 2014) and has been found to be effective in shared decision making as part of patient-centred interventions (Elywn et al., 2014). This presentation will provide a contemporary overview of MI, an examination of approaches to ensure treatment fidelity and opportunities to experience a 'taste of MI'. The presentation will finish by summarising MI and traps to avoid when working collaboratively in weight management services.

Dr Breckon is Head of the Behaviour Change Research Group and The Advanced Wellbeing Research Centre at Sheffield Hallam University and is a BPS and HCPC Chartered Psychologist. He is a member of MINT (Motivational Interviewing Network of Trainers), BPS (British Psychological Association) and BASES (British Association of Sport and Exercise Sciences). Jeff was trained in MI in 1996 and as an MI trainer by Professor Bill Miller and Professor Steve Rollnick (Quebec, 2000). He has provided MI training to over 3000 practitioners across the UK, Europe and North America and delivered the international MI 'training new trainers' (TNT) programme in Barcelona (June, 2009) and Krakow (October 2013). Dr Breckon has published and presented internationally on the role of MI in health behaviour change and is part of trials and intervention study research teams exploring the role of counselling and lifestyle interventions across platforms such as telephone, online and Apps.  He is co-author of an upcoming text with Prof Rollnick on the use of MI in sport settings.
