When the practitioner hears little bubblings of change talk, they can encourage the client by reflecting it and asking for more of the same kind or a different kind of change talk. Noticing when there is some importance and confidence talk gives the practitioner a signal to summarize and ask for some mobilizing talk. For example, “you’ve said this is something you really want and you have some important reasons already for it such as ‘a, b and c,’ you’ve got some strengths like ‘x, y and z’ that have helped you in other situations. What do you think might a step toward putting all that into action?”
