Description

Motivational Interviewing is a style of communication that enhances motivation for change by helping the individual clarify and resolve ambivalence about the need for behavioral change. Participants will gain an understanding of the purpose of MI and how it can be interwoven into any therapeutic approach to enhance the power and effectiveness of practice toward better therapy outcomes. During this dynamic and experiential training, participants will have ample opportunity to become familiar with the spirit and tools of Motivational Interviewing through individual reflection, group work, video observation and application to real clinical scenarios and case studies.
