A process combining art and study to understand clients through listening and critical thinking.

Encouraging self-expression in clients while avoiding premature solutions.

Focusing on the client without personal distractions or immediate solutions.

Establishing a positive connection with the client through empathy and validation.

Understanding and adapting interviewing techniques to different cultural backgrounds.

Gathering information before interventions. It should be valid and reliable.

Interviewing methods, like CBT, providing guidance on specific issues.

Different approaches (person-centered, psychodynamic, etc.) affecting interviewing techniques.

Core skill in building rapport through eye contact, body language, vocal qualities, and verbal tracking.

Actions that encourage open communication, like positive eye contact.

Physical actions like leaning forward & matching facial expressions.

Adjusting listening techniques based on client's cultural background.

Direct eye contact is valued in some cultures.

Improving attending and listening skills through practice and feedback.

Repeating a client's words using their preferred sensory language (e.g., 'I saw your face change when you said that' for a visual client)

Providing specific and helpful feedback on skills, focusing on improvement rather than criticism

Recognizing that individuals within a culture can have diverse communication preferences, so avoid making assumptions based on group norms

Using silence strategically to encourage reflection or allow processing, rather than rushing to fill empty space

Excessively nodding can come across as insincere or disengaged, making the client feel like you're not truly listening

Combining open-ended questions to encourage client expression with specific guidance to stay focused and achieve goals

Adapting communication style and techniques based on each client's cultural background, preferences, and individual differences

Using queries to help clients shift perspectives and focus on solutions, guiding them toward desired outcomes

Designed to encourage detailed, thoughtful responses about feelings, behaviors, or situations. Often start with 'What' or 'How' and avoid 'Why' to prevent defensiveness.

Elicits brief, specific answers, usually yes/no or factual details. Useful for clarifying information or controlling excessive talking.

Offers clients a choice to elaborate or decline. Starts with 'Could', 'Would', 'Can', or 'Will' to encourage sharing.

Uses statements like 'I wonder' or 'You must' to subtly encourage discussion, often when rapport is strong.

Explores values, emotions, or conflicts through hypothetical scenarios.

Highlights the client's self-initiated improvements before therapy begins.

Helps clients quantify progress or goals on a numerical scale (1-10).

Intentional techniques employed by therapists to help clients focus on strengths, solutions, and positive change.

Asking for specific details instead of general statements. It helps clients provide a richer, more insightful account.

Building trust with the client before addressing difficult issues. This ensures a safe and supportive environment.

Therapist actions that go beyond questions to directly guide client behavior or thinking.

Providing clients with information about therapy, their symptoms, or strategies for improvement.

Encouraging clients to consider new perspectives or actions.

Responses that can build rapport when agreeing with a client, but handled carefully during disagreement to avoid alienating them.

Therapist judgment on client thoughts or actions. Used sparingly to empower clients.

Focusing on the client's welfare and aligning with professional ethics when asking questions or giving directives.

Listing the supporting and opposing evidence for a negative thought to assess its validity. For example, "Nobody likes me" vs. "I have close friends who support me."

Common thought patterns that distort reality, such as overgeneralization (assuming one bad event means everything is bad), catastrophizing (imagining the worst possible outcome), and all-or-nothing thinking (seeing things as completely good or bad).

Replacing illogical negative thoughts with logical, evidence-based alternatives. For example, replacing "I'll never succeed" with "It's hard now, but I've succeeded before in similar situations."

Examining the worst-case scenario and planning strategies to cope with it. For example, a patient fearing job loss might plan how to budget, network, and find new opportunities.

Shifting blame from internal (self) to external or shared factors using visual aids like pie charts. For example, understanding that a failed exam might be due to factors like a difficult exam or lack of sleep rather than solely on the patient's intelligence.

A five-column log to document situations, negative thoughts, emotions, rational responses to those thoughts, and the outcome of the new thinking. Used to track progress and identify patterns.

Mentally practicing positive coping strategies in advance of challenging situations. For example, preparing for a difficult conversation by rehearsing what to say.

Small reminders with steps or affirmations to handle specific triggers, like "Focus on what I can control." They act as quick references when facing challenging emotions.
