Abstract
This paper focuses on a conversational resource we call ‘hypothetical active-voicing’ (HAV). Thepractice involves a speaker enactinghypothetical talk that their interlocutormightuse in a future situation. The data come froma corpus of Cognitive Behavioural Therapy sessions, in sequences that involve therapists proposing strategies to clients for behavioural change. The ways in which therapists routinely enacted ‘hypothetical active-voicing’ will be discussed, along with consideration of the interactional accomplishments of this practice. It will be demonstrated that theHAV device can be used as away for therapists to pre-empt resistance from clients when making proposals for behavioural change. It is typically deployed in sequential environments where resistance has already become relevant to the interaction.
