MI Community Connections: An Intro to Motivational Interviewing w/ Couples

Recent years have seen renewed interest in how MI can be used with couples to support individuals behavior change. One of the biggest challenges in conducting MI with couples is responding in situations where partners feel differently about whether or how change should happen. Relationship partners have substantial potential to influence one another's behaviors. The workshop will introduce a novel process unique to MI with couples - Facilitating Dyadic Functioning - as well as strategies for supporting productive conversation between partners (and reducing conflict) that have been developed specifically to address this challenge.
