Motivational Interviewing Level 2
About Motivational Interviewing
Motivational Interviewing (MI) is a way of working with people who are not ready to change. It is respectful and works to facilitate change by increasing a person’s own motivation. MI has been proven effective in over 60 controlled clinical research studies. MI has been used successfully with many behaviours such as: alcohol and drug abuse, smoking, exercise, diabetes management, heart disease rehabilitation, diet, FASD prevention, problem gambling, family violence and working with people who don’t have a home. MI has been found to be as effective (or more effective) than methods which take much more time and counsellor effort.
About the Level 2 course:
Level 2 continues to build more skill and confidence in using MI. *Level 2 is only for those who have had a previous 2-day training in MI within a maximum of 1 year of MI 2 training date. Participants will:
- review and expand on existing MI skills (evoking, partnership) through practice and feedback
- increase complex reflections and empathy

- apply MI theory and skills to address difficult consultations.
Participants will learn and practice to:
- Recognizing, evoking and responding to change talk and confidence talk
