Motivational Interviewing: Level I
Presenter(s)
Carrie Anne Marshall, PhD., OT Reg.(Ont.)
This is a skills-based workshop that will be delivered live online. A live online workshop mimics a similar experience to an in-person workshop, and includes the use of small group work, and paired skills training in motivational interviewing. The difference between delivering this workshop online vs. in-person is that individuals from multiple geographic regions can join conveniently from their own home. This reduces the need to pay for accommodations and other travel related expenses, and can be an economical alternative to an in-person workshop.
This skills-based workshop will provide: an introduction to motivational interviewing and its underlying theories, in-depth instruction in person-centred counselling skills, practice in listening for, and facilitating discussion about change, strategies for supporting change, examples will be drawn from a range of practice areas including substance use, housing and homelessness, hoarding, and health promotion (i.e. healthy eating, disease management, and exercise participation), practice and feedback in using the strategies learned in the workshop
**Motivational Interviewing Level I certificate will be provided on completion of this workshop.
