Recovery requires effort. Research tells us that most persons who know they need to make changes are ambivalent about doing so. Motivational Interviewing (MI) is an Evidence Based Practice that addresses the common problem of ambivalence and increases the person's likelihood to make committed efforts by strengthening their motivation for change. It is a strategic conversational style of engaging the person in conversations about change. Attendees of this training will have a basic understanding of how MI works, the SPIRIT of MI, the Micro-Skills of MI, and how to elicit and strengthen Change Talk. The training is highly interactive and practice oriented.


This training will be structured towards the Peer Recovery Support profession.
