Motivational Interviewing event at Derby
07-September-2006
permalink email thisClients, including challenging clients, often test the skills of guidance professionals. New methodologies, techniques and tools are often needed to provide the most effective support for clients. 'Motivational Interviewing' is one such methodology. Originally developed for guidance for people in prisons, it has since been used for a wide range of clients, including those with drug problems. The techniques of motivational interviewing are valuable for many clients including more “average” clients who may need support from a different model of guidance.
