TACC Presents our 2020 CE Workshop!

Listening Well: Motivational Interviewing Skills for Enhancing Client Engagement, Improving Self-Efficacy, and Promoting Positive Change

This interactive workshop will draw upon the work and counseling techniques of Bill Miller, creator of Motivational Interviewing, and decades of research and evaluation in empathic listening and accurate empathy. We will explore conversation roadblocks and contributing factors to miscommunication, as well as clinical intervention and practice skills for enhancing understanding, reducing conflict, and promoting positive change.

Objectives: At the conclusion of this workshop participants will be able to:

1. Define accurate empathy.
2. Identify communication roadblocks that deter from client engagement.
3. Describe the process and importance of listening without sound.
4. Ask fewer questions to elicit greater understanding.
5. Demonstrate accurate empathy through reflective listening.
6. Maintain a curious stance to enhance conflict resolution.
