Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Motivational Interviewing

The training will include MI skills and elements identified as most effective, MI spirit (collaboration, evoking patient motivation, honoring patient autonomy, recognizing and reinforcing change talk, and "rolling" with (not fighting) resistance. Physicians utilizing MI will learn to engage with patients in an empathic, nonjudgmental manner and to pose simple but strategic questions to motivate change; when patients resist change, the physician learns to ''roll'' with resistance instead of confronting it. If and when the patient is ready to initiate a change, the physician will be prepared to support their decision
