  • Apply Motivational Interviewing to real-world clinical issues
  • MI skills to quickly improve your client treatment outcomes

Complete this seminar and get the latest, updated Motivational Interviewing (MI) techniques recently released by MI founders Drs. Miller and Rollnick. Join experienced MI trainer, Christopher C. Wagner, Ph.D., member of the international Motivational Interviewing Network of Trainers (MINT), and learn how to integrate MI skills into your practice – newly adapted for common clinical problems beyond addiction treatment.

Take away the four processes approach to MI that now make the skills more accessible and useful in your everyday clinical practice. This seminar shows you how MI can be used to enhance engagement in treatments other than MI.
