1 day introduction to Motivational Interviewing in Brain Injury Rehabilitation

Motivational Interviewing is effective; evidence based and deeply client centred approach aimed at helping people achieve positive behaviour change. These courses are suitable for practitioners working in the brain injury field who would like to learn; consolidate and develop motivational interviewing and how it can be integrated into brain injury rehabilitation. The one - day introductory course provides an overview of motivational interviewing (MI) within a brain injury context. This course is suitable for people who would like to see if MI is an approach they would like to incorporate into their practice. At this level; participants learn about MI (e.g. key concepts) and gain some practical understanding of how to apply it. Typical participants are people who have had little or no training and find it difficult to attend for two full days. Some participants may have previously attended MI training in the past and would like the opportunity to either revisit MI within a brain injury context OR refresh and consolidate their skills.
