Motivational Interviewing for MSK professionals

Are you looking to enhance your communication skills, empower others, and foster positive change in MSK rehabilitation settings? Look no further! We offer online and in-person trainings and post-training coaching for individuals, teams and groups across health, social care, education and leadership sectors.

What is Motivational interviewing?

Motivational Interviewing (MI) is a collaborative, client-centered form of counseling that helps individuals discover their own intrinsic motivation for change. Whether you’re a healthcare professional, counselor, educator, or anyone seeking to improve
interpersonal relationships, MI can be a game-changer.

Key benefits of our MI training

Empowerment: Learn how to empower individuals to explore their own goals and aspirations around rehabilitation and understand their values and underlying motivations for physical health.

Effective Communication: Enhance your communication skills, enabling you to build stronger connections with clients, colleagues and patients. 

Difficult Conversations: Discover how MI can be applied to resolve conflicts and navigate difficult conversations with authenticity, compassion and  understanding.
