In this communication video, I focused the interview on the importance of the individual’s nutrition, their exercise schedule, and how they cope with stress and related factors to these concepts. To begin the interview, I introduced myself at 0:01s stating, “Hi Samantha, I’m Becca, I’m your student nurse today…”. By introducing myself, I am beginning the Introductory Phase. It is important to identify my self and my role to make sure the client is comfortable with the situation and can express any concerns (Berman, Snyder, & Frandsen, 2016). At 0:05s I am clarifying consent with Samantha to make sure it is okay to interview her, “…interviewing you if that is okay?”. By asking for consent the client feels that they are active participants in

It is important, next, to explain confidentiality to the client. By expressing that the interview is confidential the client is aware of their rights and should feel more inclined to share (Berman et al., 2016). The confidentiality statement needs to be sincere and comforting. I explain Samantha’s confidentiality rights at 0:15s in the video. This is an example of therapeutic use of self also. I am self aware that during and after this interview, it is my responsibility to keep this information private. Before moving into the working phase of the interview I must establish trust between the client and myself. “Trust is described as as the reliance on someone without doubt or question or the belief that the other person is capable of assisting in times of distress and in all likelihood will do so.” (Berman et al., 2016). To establish trust I used nonverbal and verbal techniques. Nonverbally, I have stayed open and directed my body toward the client for the length of the video so far. This shows I am listening and ready to help the client in anyway I can. Verbally so far, I have kept a neutral, nonjudgmental tone and explained to the client what will be …show more content…
Before I begin terminating the interview, at 10:00s I ask Samantha if she has any other questions for me. This is an example of the therapeutic use of self, respect. I respect Samantha for participating in this interview and I respect her rights as a client to ask me any questions that she desires to. Samantha does not have ay questions for me so we move into the termination phase of the interview. The termination phase consists mainly of summarizing and planning, and both the nurse and the client leave the relationship without any feelings of anxiety of dependence (Berman et al., 2016). I start indicating we are going to finish by asking her if she has any questions and then I summarize the entire interview. I use my last therapeutic technique by summarizing the interview and planning some goals for Samantha. This occurs at 10:03s and I stated, “It sounds like in the last couple minutes we talked about…”. I pointed out the biggest factor that leads to her stress and problems, which is time management, and I allow her to think of some of her own goals to try and accomplish. She starts stating her goals by saying, “I think I’m going to start planning
