Motiverende samtale i vurdering og håndtering af suicidalitet

Motivational Interviewing (MI) can be effectively applied to clinical crises and suicidal patients. A case example of a suicidal patient demonstrates traditional management combined with two evidence-based practices: MI and Collaborative Assessment and Management of Suicidality. The case example illustrates some benefits and limitations of the application of these innovative approaches in a difficult area of clinical practice. A rationale for further clinical use is advanced.
