Event Description
Motivational interviewing
is an evidence-based approach to behavior change counseling. Now in its 3rd decade, MI has
significantly altered the manner in which behavior change is discussed within
the fields of addictive disorders, acute and chronic disease management,
criminal justice, social services and the management of severe and enduring
psychiatric disorders. During this workshop, both the relational and technical
components of MI, using both didactic and experiential methods will be
addressed. The relational component refers to the interpersonal foundation of
collaboration, power-sharing, and the appreciation of ambivalence which appears
necessary, if insufficient, for effective behavior change. The technical
component, the preferential evocation and reinforcement of change talk, is a
unique contribution of MI and, when integrated with the MI-spirited
relationship, facilitates the initiation and persistence of change. Practitioners will learn how to integrate the
principles and techniques of MI into their everyday practices. Learning objectives: ·
Identify
the 3 key elements of the relational component of MI and describe one clinical
strategy each for implementation of the 3 relational elements. ·
Discuss
the manner in which the decisional matrix can be used to gain an understanding
of client ambivalence, and apply decisional matrix-informed counseling
techniques to health change counseling. ·
Identify
two strategies for eliciting and reinforcing client change talk. Program Code: MIHC6 6 CE Credits Fee: $135
