Motivational Interviewing: A Practical Introduction to the What, Why & How
What Therapists Need to Know
Naveen Jonathan, MFT & Katheryn Whittaker, MFT
Motivational Interviewing is not just for addiction treatment any more. Today’s Motivational Interviewing (MI) helps clients move toward change successfully with confidence and can help you engage clients for positive behavior change. MI, a client-centered, non-authoritative, semi-directive therapeutic approach to helping people free up their own motivations and resources, is a powerful technique for overcoming ambivalence and helping clients to get "unstuck."
Learn the guiding principles of MI and specific strategies for building motivation and strengthening commitment for change. Discover how to use this powerful therapeutic approach with individuals, children, couples, and families, those in recovery from co-occurring disorders, mental illness, and substance abuse.
Presented by:
