An Introduction to Motivational Interviewing: Technical Skills
Part 2 of a 2 Part Series
This is a live interactive webinar presentation.
We have at our disposal an array of evidence-based practices (EBPs) for a variety of disorders (e.g., depression, PTSD, OCD, etc.). However, there is a significant proportion of clients who have difficulties engaging in those EBPs. A motivational interviewing approach (MI) may help resolve ambivalence related to EBP engagement. MI is defined as “a collaborative conversation style for strengthening a person’s own motivation and commitment to change” (Miller & Rollnick, 2012). Integrating and overlaying this MI style onto an EBP can help overcome engagement challenges (e.g., homework completion) and continue to move individuals in the direction of change. There is also value in using MI as a prelude to an EBP to shore up motivation and to facilitate engagement in the EBP. The purpose of this training will be to introduce MI to participants and review basic MI technical skills and concepts, including microskills (OARS) and change talk.
At the completion of the program, participants will be able to:
- Explain Motivational Interviewing
- Understand Motivational Interviewing technical components
- Describe Motivational Interviewing “change talk”
