Motivational interviewing (MI) is a conversational style developed by psychologists William R. Miller and Stephen Rollnick. It is evidence based, directive in nature, but rooted in a client-centred approach. Motivational Interviewing helps clients explore and resolve ambivalence and strengthen their own intrinsic motivation for change. Research has shown this approach to be helpful with a wide spectrum of client populations and issues.

NB: Places are limited. Attendees should be able to attend all 4 sessions and must be professionals working with families in services/organisations in Co Kildare. A certificate will be given at the end of the course.
