Description:
This is a core skills workshop suitable for new practitioners and as a refresher for experienced and advanced practitioners.
In this one-day workshop, participants will gain core motivational interviewing skills and a deep understanding of the spirit and philosophy of motivational interviewing to adapt it to any client or situation.
Motivational interviewing is an essential skill that has powerful impacts on change. We use demonstrations, clinical anecdotes and practice so participants walk away with real skills they can apply immediately to their alcohol and other drug work.
Key learning outcomes:
- Find out what really motivates people to change so staff know exactly what to target in their work with clients
- Understand motivational interviewing theory and processes to quip staff with a solid framework to work form
- Build and strengthen core motivational interviewing skills and strategies, adaptable to any situation
