Winter 2024 Introduction to Motivational Interviewing, 20 hours
Fall 2024 Introduction to Motivational Interviewing, 20 hours
This program is offered twice a year for U-M Student Life staff free of charge. Motivational Interviewing (MI) is a terrific tool for helping people change behavior. It's especially helpful for medical staff (lifestyle changes and medication adherence) and therapists/counselors for behavior change to support mental health. Its use is being expanded to Student Life advisers, supervisors and more. Learn basic, foundational skills for MI, including spirit (Compassion, Acceptance, Partnership, Evocation), OARS (open questions, affirmations, reflections, summaries), identifying and responding to change talk and a little on discord (if there is time). Lots of practice in "real plays" (you get to work on your own behavior changes that you are ambivalent about--so bring a couple behavior changes you'd like to change! While you won't be an expert at MI when you are done, you will be able to start the practice, move forward in your skills, know how to improve and maybe even want to learn more! Please only register if you can attend all of the training dates, as each day builds on prior sessions. All Fridays:
