Addiction treatment is where Motivational Interviewing began, and it remains the area in which scientific evidence for the efficacy of MI is strongest. Even brief MI interventions have been shown to help people turn the corner on longstanding self-destructive habits. This course describes and demonstrates how this approach can be used in treating addictions, where the dynamics of ambivalence are key to change.

Throughout this 10 hour advanced-level course, you will see multiple demonstrations of MI with a variety of clients, and learn how MI can be used at each stage of change, from pre-contemplation and contemplation, to preparation, action and maintenance. You will learn from expert addiction-treatment specialists how to apply the method of MI with your own clients, by harnessing their own internal motivations to change.

Each part includes carefully crafted video lessons and multiple treatment demonstrations, as well as animations and interactive quizzes designed to reinforce key learning points in an engaging and entertaining way. Your course also includes a library of resources and readings for you to delve more deeply into this clinical method of addiction treatment.
