Motivational Interviewing: Core Skills "Sustaining Change Through Intrinsic Motivation" Date: TBD or Delivered at your location Program Details  Enduring client change is achievable through Motivational Interviewing (MI). MI is the powerful evidence-based
method for engaging intrinsic client motivation. Clinical trials
on use of MI in all areas of treatment abound with substantial outcomes
for creating sustainable change in maladaptive behaviors far beyond
compliance. MI is proven to be fully compatible with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Moral Reconation Therapy, Therapeutic Community, and various other approaches as a method that helps people resolve ambivalence toward change through discovery of intrapersonal motivation by placing complete responsibility for change on the individual. This program teaches foundational concepts, strategy and techniques involved in MI and how it can be developed and utilized dynamically in targeted settings. It is excellent for staffs with little or no knowledge of the MI approach as well as those already implementing the model. Joyfields Institute MI programs are taught through presentations, video examples, instructor modeling, and practice breakout activities. Participants will recognize that many of the techniques are part of their current practice. With that recognition and the training, they will be able to begin using the techniques with more effectiveness and added fidelity to the model.
