If You’ve Got Five Minutes: Conversations that Make a Difference

Skillful, clinical interactions in small doses can have sizeable effects. Time constraints don’t have to be a deterrent to having impactful conversations with people you serve. Based on Motivational Interviewing, learn how to facilitate brief, focused, guided conversations that tap into people’s intrinsic motivation to make positive changes in their lives. You will learn about, observe, and have the opportunity to practice first-hand how to have conversations that make a difference. Practitioners of all disciplines in health, behavioral health, and social services are invited to participate in this session.
