conception of “the problem” Taking Sides Trap.
◦ When you detect some information indicating the presence of a problem and begin to tell the client about how serious it is and what to do about it, you have taken sides.
Blaming Trap. ◦ Some clients show defensiveness by blaming others for
their situation. It is useful to Diffuse blaming by explaining that the placing of blame is not
a purpose of counseling. Expert Trap.
◦ When you give the impression that you have all the answers, you draw the client into a passive role.
◦ In MI the client is the expert about his/her situation, values, goals, concerns, and skills.
