This is the fourth in a series of educational videos aiming to support effective conversations between health professionals and patients in the use of opioids for the management of chronic non-cancer pain. This video includes a demonstration of the use of motivational interviewing when discussing the relationship between pain and the brain and recommending a referral to a psychologist.

The video series has been developed with funding from the Therapeutic Goods Administration, Australian Government Department of Health, and in collaboration with Painaustralia Consumer Advisory Group.
