Tracking # 20-891494
Course overview
In this course, you will learn about the theory and application of the motivational interviewing (MI) approach to helping patients discover their own desire and ability to make changes. MI is a way of communicating that draws out people's own thoughts and beliefs in order to help them resolve ambivalence about change. This process can be effective in helping engage patients in therapy interventions. In addition to examining what MI is, you will learn specific skills and techniques to support the MI processes of engaging, focusing, evoking, and planning with patients as they discover their own reasons for change. The course uses a blend of instructive information and interactive exercises to help you understand and apply its core concepts.
