4. Participants will be able to identity Open Ended questions, Reflections, and client change

SUMMARY:  
Motivational Interviewing (MI), initially developed by William R. Miller in 1983, is a collaborative, person-centered approach to clinical interactions, emphasizing eliciting and strengthening each clients' particular motivation to change.  Drawn from work with substance-using and court ordered clients, the MI approach focuses on meeting each client where he/she is at, and moving in a direction that supports growth and positive change.  Driven by motivational processes within the individual, the MI approach focuses on exploring and resolving ambivalence.  The principles of MI have been tested through clinical experience and empirical research across a variety of settings.  This six-hour, one-day talk will focus on the "spirit" of the MI approach, looking at foundational skills (e.g., the use of OARS techniques:  Open-ended questions, Affirmations, Reflective listening, and Summaries) as a way to initiate dialog with clients, moving past resistance and listening for "change talk."
Exercises will provide experience in applying these practices, and give participants an opportunity to see these practices in action.  Participants will be encouraged to talk about how MI might be used in their settings, and what barriers/supports might exisit for moving this into supervision and clinical work beyond this workshop.

Peter Sprengelmeyer earned his Ph.D. in Child Clinical Psychology at the University of Missouri-Columbia in 1997.  Since 1997, he has worked with the Oregon Social Learning Center as an interventionist, supervisor, and researcher.  Currently, he serves as the Executive Director of Oregon Community Programs.  Peter has also worked with several research and implementation projects concerning the Multidimensional Treatment Foster Care, KEEP, and Multisystemic Therapy models and with the dissemination of empirically-validated practice into community mental health settings. Specifically, he has worked with projects evaluating the use of validated models with specific populations (e.g., girls with histories of severe and persistent delinquent behavior), the use of the internet in remote supervision, and the effects of adapting validated models based on ethnicity, population density, and culture.
