SUMMARY:Motivational Interviewing May 8-10\, 2026
DESCRIPTION:Description: \nPrereq: Addiction Counseling Skills “Motivational interviewing is a client‐centered collaborative style of conversation designed to strengthen a person’s motivation for and commitment to change. MI is counselor‐guided in that the counselor is skilled at managing ambivalence\, eliciting change‐talk and honoring the client’s autonomy about taking the next step toward a commonly agreed-upon goal” (Miller & Rollnick\, 2014). Over 1500 studies to date have demonstrated the effectiveness of motivational interviewing at increasing client engagement\, retention\, compliance\, and improving treatment outcomes. Motivational Interviewing is an evidence-based counseling approach used to assist individuals to identify their readiness\, willingness\, and ability to make a change. The CAC Clinical Training Program at the Colorado Office of Behavioral Health (OBH) is committed to a process of integrating the Motivational Interviewing style\, spirit\, and strategies into all levels of training and to support clinical supervision of motivational interviewing as a counseling style. \nTime/Duration: Virtual Classroom meets online via Zoom or Google Meet from 8:30 – 4:00 (21 hours) for 3 consecutive days.

SUMMARY:Clinical Supervision II May 16-17\, 2026
DESCRIPTION:Description \n(Prerequisites are Advanced Motivational Interviewing & Clinical Supervision I)\nMotivational Interviewing (MI) is an evidence-based tool used intentionally along the entire continuum of care from prevention through recovery\, in the work of substance use and process addictions. The key to supporting the consistent use of the Motivational Interviewing (MI) model in counseling and service provision is supervisory coaching and feedback. The aim of this training is to teach clinicians and other service providers who already have acquired MI skills\, and who have or will have a supervisory role\, how to observe and coach their supervisees in the proper application of these skills in a diverse and integrated care environment. MITI 4.2.1 (Motivational Interviewing Treatment Integrity Coding Manual 4.2.1 is a template provided by MINT (https://motivationalinterviewing.org/motivational-interviewing-resources ) for training supervisees to use MI in joining and engaging the client and improving client commitment to treatment during and following screening and assessment. Using the framework of this scoring and feedback technique\, training participants will practice effective coaching and supervisory skills to help team leaders\, managers and supervisors work with their staff to incorporate their MI skills more often and consistently. There will be an emphasis on MI interview rating systems and general interview rating etiquette. Participants will discuss how to use feedback to coach supervisees\, practical guidelines for MI supervision\, how to code in a manner that enhances clinical supervision and implementation considerations.\nTime/Duration: Virtual Classroom meets online via Zoom or Google Meet from 8:30 – 4:00 (14 hours) for 2 consecutive days.
