SUMMARY:Clinical Supervision II December 12-13\, 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.

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.
