Motivational Interviewing - London Borough Brent

Brent Council were keen to bring about behaviour change by motivating clients towards change.

We delivered a 2 day programme with a few weeks in between to give them time to practice the techniques. This proved extremely valuable and the group were extremely committed and energised by the approach having tried the techniques out between the training days. This meant that Day allowed us to deal with more difficult scenarios and really think about how to embed this approach into practice.

Feedback from Staff included:

I learnt a vast amount. There will be a systemic change in how I approach my practice

I now feel empowered to support my clients to take ownership

I will definitely apply various skills and knowledge learnt in this training when working with families

I found the smart plan approaches useful to use in our action planning process with families
