Motivational interviewing is a person centred approach that can help to strengthen a client’s internal motivation for behaviour change. It is increasingly popular in brain injury rehabilitation.

Many health care and rehabilitation practitioners have attended an introductory workshop in motivational interviewing. Beginner’s workshops often devote significant time to developing empathic listening skills. They are a good way to start practicing motivational interviewing. However, further opportunities for advanced skills practice with feedback are especially useful for building confidence in this important therapeutic approach.

• This one day advanced course is designed for professionals working in brain injury rehabilitation who are already familiar with the basics of motivational interviewing.

• The day addresses common areas where people can become stuck using motivational interviewing. A particular focus is on how to work with individuals with frontal brain injury.

• Areas covered include working with impulsivity, anger and irritability, and also impaired self-awareness.

Who the course is for:

The course is suitable for all allied health practitioners, physicians, managers and case managers who work with individuals who have sustained a traumatic brain injury. This course will be of particular interest to advanced practitioners in the field of brain injury, where a level of proficiency in empathic listening skills and some knowledge of motivational interviewing is assumed.

This is a multi-media presentation with small group activities, DVD examples. There will be multiple opportunities for practice with supportive feedback. A training workbook is also provided.
