Motivational interviewing, a treatment approach developed by William Miller, has been well established as an effective way to promote behavior change in individuals. This face-to-face training course requires previous training and experience using motivational interviewing techniques in clinical practice. Following a brief review of the fundamental MI principles and micro-skills, this experiential, advanced-level MI skill development training will focus on helping clients/patients to engage in change talk and then make commitments to make behavioral changes based on goals that they have identified. It will provide in depth instruction, real play practice, and feedback on fostering and utilizing change talk to increase client/patient motivation, and movement toward change across all health, mental health, and substance use conditions.

 

Pre-requisite details: This advanced course requires participation in a previous introductory level Motivational Interviewing training.  If you plan to attend the in-person training on April 2, please provide that date.
