Service Description

Deepen your Motivational Interviewing (MI) skills with intermediate techniques that enhance engagement and encourage meaningful change. While beginner MI principles provide a strong foundation, intermediate-level training takes your communication to the next level, helping you navigate complex conversations with confidence. Investing in this level of MI training strengthens your ability to use nuanced reflections, affirmations, and strategic questioning, making interactions more effective—whether in healthcare, leadership, education, or client-focused work. By honing these skills, professionals can reduce resistance, foster trust, and guide individuals toward sustained motivation and self-directed change. Our Intermediate Motivational Interviewing Training offers hands-on practice in advanced OARS techniques, including complex reflections and affirmations that deepen conversation and strengthen rapport. Participants will also explore the Ask-Tell-Ask strategy, a powerful approach for sharing information while maintaining client autonomy. Through interactive exercises, real-world application, and guided coaching, you’ll refine your ability to adapt MI techniques to challenging scenarios and diverse communication styles. This training is designed for those familiar with MI fundamentals who are ready to increase confidence and effectiveness in applying MI to professional and everyday interactions. This four-hour interactive course is facilitated online (Zoom).
