Motivational Interviewing: Module 1 - The Spirit of MI
Motivational Interviewing: Module 1 - The Spirit of MI
People contemplating change often feel two ways about it. As helpers, our reflexive response to fix, correct or make change happen may not be the best choice. Motivational Interviewing (MI) offers people in the fields of health care, criminal justice, addiction treatment and behavioral health a different way of thinking about and communicating with people about change. The foundation of the practice of MI begins with the mindset and heartset of partnership, acceptance, compassion and evocation. This first, two-hour session is perfect for individuals wanting a general introduction to the spirit and practice of MI or for experts wanting a refresher in the spirit of this communication style.
