Our Trainers

Endeavor to Identify, disseminate and facilitate international best practice by keeping up with the latest global trends, thinking and research.  Expertise is delivered in a safe, confidential platform where participants can explore and develop their practice.  All of our trainers actively use MI in their daily practice.

Why Motivational Interviewing?

Motivational interviewing (MI) is the only standardized, evidence-based approach for facilitating behaviour change.

MI is used in multiple settings around the world, including alcohol and drug rehabilitation, corrections and probation, behavioural health, youth work, medical settings —and of course health care.

The use of MI in health care has been backed by dozens of rigorous studies documenting its value for engaging and assisting clients with difficult lifestyle management and self-care challenges.
