INTRODUCTION TO MOTIVATIONAL INTERVIEWING FOR OCCUPATIONAL THERAPY PRACTICE (IMI1410)
WORKSHOP SUMMARY
Motivational interviewing (MI) is a ‘collaborative conversation style for strengthening a person’s own motivation and commitment to change’ (Miller 2013)[1] . MI provides workers with strategies and skills to support their clients to make meaningful changes. It also offers ways to deal with common issues in practice such as client ambivalence, relapsing conditions, lack of importance, confidence and readiness to change, and discord between client and therapist.
MI has a strong evidence base with over 200 randomized controlled trials demonstrating its effectiveness in a wide range of areas including mental health, substance use disorders, physical health addressing exercise, diet, pain management, diabetes, oral health, and within education, employment and correctional services.
This practical workshop introduces participants to the core elements of MI - theory and practice - and provides opportunities to practice skills which can then be applied across a range of service delivery settings.
WHO SHOULD ATTEND?
Suitable for Occupational Therapists at any career stage as well as OT Students.

WORKSHOP DETAILS
There will be a one-day interactive online workshop with a follow-up online Knowedge in Practice Session.
Workshop
The workshop will be conducted utilising a variety of formats including:
- lecture style
- videos
- demonstration of MI in practice
- breaking off into pairs / smaller groups to practice skills
- opportunity to trial MI tools
- goal planning to apply in practice
Knowledge in Practice Session
Motivational Interviewing proficiency involves practice of the core skills and strategies combined with practitioner reflection and feedback from others. For this reason, the 1 day workshop will include a follow up Knowledge in Practice session (one and a half hours in length) in the month after the workshop to support participants to consolidate learning. The Knowledge in Practice session will be practical and activity based. It will build on all of the workshop objectives and provide opportunities to practice the skills and strategies in more depth, alongside questions, reflection, feedback and access to further resources and future learning opportunities.
