Evocation |
Facilitator encourages clients to brainstorm reasons and ideas for how to change |
“Liked the way she asked questions to make people more interested, like getting their opinion on something.” (Session 1)
“Liked that people could say what they wanted/ what they thought, it’s good to hear what other people think about stuff…open discussion.” (Session 2)
“You can really get something out of this, and relate it to our lives or our friends’ lives. It was useful.” (Session 5)
|
Collaboration |
Facilitator encourages clients to share the talking, there is agreement on goals, and there is little power differential |
“It was fun. I thought it was going to be a class, and that you guys were going to do all the talking.” (Session 3)
“In like some groups, some people don’t talk at all. They’re probably just like sitting there. She kind of got everybody involved. ” (Session 6)
"It was more interactive than [other types of groups] where we don’t really do any talking at all, we just listen." (Session 4)
|
Autonomy/Support |
Facilitator emphasizes and supports client’s personal choice for changing |
“I liked that we were not being told things, not like a classroom environment.” (Session 3)
“This class is like a reminder, because people already know this. It always comes down to you - and it’s your choice - and all you can do is give people info and teach them things, and you know... the rest is up to them.” (Session 3)
"Like she said early at the beginning of class; she said that she wasn’t going to be like a teacher and tell us what to do. She was going to like listen and like give us a good outlet; give us like tips but not to like tell us what to do." (Session 1)
