Course programme

Motivational Interviewing (Introduction)

By the end of the course participants will be able to

  • Discuss the concept of motivation and relate it to a model of the way people change.
  • Make a realistic assessment of a client's motivation.
  • Use their interviewing and counselling skills to elicit and foster the client's wish to change.
  • Increase their effectiveness with clients who are resistant to changing risk behaviour.

Continuing to Learn Motivational Interviewing
Research into the teaching of motivational interviewing has shown that full competence is only reached when a typical 2-day introductory workshop is backed up by supervised practice in the workplace (Miller et al 2005). Many organisations are able to provide this in-house and we strongly recommend that agencies commissioning M.I. training build such supervision in to their overall staff development plan.
However, we have found that not everyone who attends our courses has such help to consolidate and continue their learning once the course is over. Consequently we are now offering M.I. supervision that can be customised to individual need.

Possible formats are:
· Telephone coaching
· Critique and feedback on taped sessions with clients
· One to one supervision.
