Do you have clients who:
Can’t seem to get started on making positive changes in their lives or begin but get bogged down?
Can’t quite find their direction or stop focusing on how others are to blame for their situation?
Resist nearly everything offered in support of helping them make their lives better?
All of these are common challenges across a range of settings, populations and clinical concerns.
Motivational Interviewing (MI) has emerged over the past two decades as a leading approach for addressing a core clinical concern – motivation.
Incorporating the latest MI developments, this workshop focuses on the key elements that can transform your practice to escape struggling with clients and make real change in people’s lives.

Watch motivational interviewing expert, trainer and author, Chris Wagner, Ph.D., for this action packed recording! Learn how to effectively focus clients’ attention on embracing change and successfully anticipating and surmounting obstacles they face as they pursue it. You will leave this course inspired and prepared to help your clients get unstuck and begin creating more fulfilling lives.
