Introduction to Motivational Interviewing

  • Mary Free Bed Rehabilitation POB Meijer Conference Ctr 305 Lafayette St. SE, Grand Rapids, MI 49503 United States (map)

Course Description:

  Behavior Change is highly sought after by patients and treatment providers, alike. Stages of Change theory and Motivational Interviewing (also called Motivational Enhancement Therapy) help to describe what happens when people change and then to provide a framework for facilitating movement through the change process in a way that is own by the patient themselves. This provides for patient centered care and also for lasting results. It is applicable for all behavior change, not merely those behaviors commonly associated with psychotherapy, but also those with any bio-psycho-social stressor or impairment of optimal life functioning.
