Facilitated Cohort Learning Session to Support Motivational Interviewing
These sessions will provide participants of the Advanced Motivational Interviewing training an opportunity to deepen use and practice of Motivational Interviewing, focused on everyday child welfare. You will focus on your role as a facilitator rather than an expert to collaborate, evoke and honor the family’s autonomy. These sessions will provide opportunities to apply strategic responses to move families toward change without coercion and avoid practitioner responses that trigger resistance.
Topics of the sessions are identified by the cohort members and learning activities are organized and facilitated by Alliance staff. Cohort members are able to role play/real play based on live case conversations that are upcoming or recently had to increase effectiveness.
