From Resistance to Readiness: Using Motivational Interviewing to Build Self-Efficacy for Lasting Behavior Change
Thu, Apr 16, 2026 | 11:00 AM - 12:00 PM PT | WEBINAR
Non-compliant, resistant, and unmotivated are words often used to describe clients that appear stuck, despite voicing a strong desire to change. Through motivational interviewing, the objective is to resolve this ambivalence through a collaborative, goal-oriented approach that promotes behavior change. From the very first interaction with a client, there is an opportunity to shape perception on the possibility of progress, increasing the probability of self-sustaining behavior change beyond just the original scope of intervention. In this webinar, participants will explore both client and provider barriers to change and gain practical, evidence-informed strategies to navigate them with empathy, confidence, and clinical effectiveness.

The workshop was clear and concise and offered much more information than I expected!
