IPS0092 - Protective Services Enrichment: Motivational Interviewing
Course Description
Participants in this training will learn the basic concepts of motivational interviewing. Motivational interviewing is used by professionals across many disciplines, including social services and victim advocacy as a means to help a person facilitate change.
“[Motivational interviewing] is a collaborative, goal-oriented style of communication with particular attention to the language of change. It is designed to strengthen personal motivation for and commitment to a specific goal by eliciting and exploring the person’s own reasons for change within an atmosphere of acceptance and compassion.” (Miller & Rollnick, 2013, p. 29).
