Exploring Motivational Interviewing
What is motivational interviewing?
“Motivational interviewing (MI) is a collaborative, goal-oriented style of communication with particular attention to the language of change. It is designed to strengthen personal motivation for and commitment to, a specific goal, by eliciting and exploring the person’s own reasons for change within an atmosphere of acceptance and compassion” (Miller & Rollnick, 2012).
1 Day Workshop: An introduction to Motivational Interviewing - Guiding change in helping conversations
The aim of this interactive workshop is to give participants the opportunity to experience the basics of MI and decide the level of interest in learning more. Participants will be introduced to, and provided with the opportunities to explore the following:
Learning Outcomes:
Understand the fundamental spirit and processes of MI
Directly experience the MI approach and contrast it with others
Be acquainted with relevant evidence of efficacy
Learn practical guidelines for exchanging information/giving advice “in the spirit of MI”
Learn a MI strategy for assessing and building motivation
Have direct practice in, and experience of, these particular applications
2 Day Workshop: Motivational Interviewing - Processes and skills
Following on from Day 1, the aim of this workshop is to provide participants with a more in-depth understanding of the style of MI, and how to continue applying it in practice.
Learning Outcomes:
Strengthen empathic listening skills
Direct practice and experience in the use of the core skills (including open ended questions, affirming, reflective listening, summarising) throughout the four processes of MI
Direct practice in listening for, and responding to, change talk
Learn the fundamental client language cues, that allow continued feedback and learning in practice
Spaces are limited for this workshop.
Deepening Motivational Interviewing Skills - 3rd Day of Training
There is also a third day of training available as a follow-up to the two-day workshop - Deepening Motivational Interviewing Skills. Visit the website for full information.
Our recommendation is this workshop be taken at a later date, sometime after you have completed the two-day workshop, to give you the time to put into practice what you have learnt and build up your learning.
Who Should Attend
All who work to support others to change, including (but not limited to) doctors, psychologists, psychiatrists, nurses, case workers, social workers, counsellors, teachers, youth workers, occupational therapists, physiotherapists, community mental health nurses, school counsellors, school leadership, corrections and youth justice workers.
Interested in a Private workshop for your team?
If your organisation is interested in having Eileen present face-face to between 15 - 28, please contact Faye Johnson for more information.
If you do not have sufficient numbers within your team, you could open the training up either to other Branch’s of your organisation or other region-based community agencies you work with. We have worked with many organisations this has worked well for - contact us for further information.
The following peak bodies and organisations recognise that the training we offer is of a high quality, evidence based and relevant for their members CPD.
About the Presenter
Dr Eileen Britt
“Through my research and teaching I seek to make a difference, and to develop students who in turn will be people prepared to make a difference.”
Eileen Britt is a member of the Motivational Interviewing (MI) Network of Trainers, an international collective of MI trainers who promote excellence in the training, research, practice and implementation of MI.

In this role Eileen teaches MI to postgraduate clinical psychology students, psychiatric registrars, and students within the School of Health Sciences. It also involves her researching MI, including: its use with different populations (e.g., youth and adults with diabetes); as a pre-treatment engagement intervention (e.g., for youth with mental health disorders or perpetrators of intimate partner violence); in different settings (e.g., sports coaching and Work and Income); and the training of MI. Eileen is also one of the authors of Takitaki Mai: A guide to Motivational Interviewing for Māori practitioners.
Eileen also provides MI training (introductory to advanced), supervision and coaching, and coding training for a range of NGO services, governmental and professional organisations within NZ. In 2022 Eileen was the recipient of a National teaching award - Te Whatu Kairangi
