Foundational Motivational Interviewing
This training provides learners with an introduction to Motivational Interviewing and focuses on the spirit, techniques, and key principles of holding a Motivational Interviewing conversation. This training is highly experiential, and learners will participate in exercises designed to illustrate the concepts described and will be given the opportunity to discuss their experience of those exercises. The goal of this training is for attendees to feel sufficiently familiar with MI to begin utilizing and embracing it in their day-to-day interactions with the clients they serve.
