This course is an advanced continuation of my Introduction to Motivational Interviewing course here on Udemy, designed to deepen and expand the skills and knowledge you’ve already started to develop. While the introductory course provides a solid foundation, this course takes those concepts to a more sophisticated level, providing a detailed exploration of advanced strategies, techniques, and theoretical concepts in Motivational Interviewing.
Through a series of comprehensive video lectures, we examine each new strategy in depth, explaining not only how to implement these techniques effectively but also when and where they are best used. This course goes beyond simple explanations—each strategy is carefully unpacked to help you understand the rationale behind it and the psychological principles that guide its use. You'll gain a deeper insight into the theoretical underpinnings of Motivational Interviewing and how these advanced techniques enhance the therapeutic process. The course includes a variety of practical examples and case studies to help you understand how to apply these strategies in real-world settings, whether you’re working with clients in counseling, health promotion, addiction treatment, or other areas where Motivational Interviewing is beneficial.
This course is ideal for those who already have a basic understanding of Motivational Interviewing and wish to further develop their skills. It’s perfect for individuals who are looking to integrate Motivational Interviewing into their professional practice, expand their counseling toolbox, or enhance their ability to help clients navigate ambivalence and make lasting changes. Whether you're a counselor, therapist, healthcare professional, or someone in a helping profession, this course provides an invaluable resource for your continued professional development (CPD).
Upon successful completion of the course, you will receive a certificate from Udemy that reflects your new level of expertise.
