Presentation Description
As professionals working in unprecedented times, effective engagement has never been more important in clinical practice. In the service of strengthening effective engagement, this workshop will integrate two approaches that strengthen motivations for change and reduce secondary traumatic stress. First, we will review the clinical approach of Motivational Interviewing (MI). MI is an evidenced-based collaborative conversation style for strengthening a person’s own motivation and commitment to change. We will review the “spirit” of MI, important engagement strategies and supporting “change talk.” The second approach, Components for Enhancing Clinician Experience and Reducing Trauma (CE-CERT), is designed support wellbeing skills & practices “in the work.” Typically clinicians are trained on how to support wellness & self-care by disengaging from the work. In this overview, we will identify practical strategies in engagement too reduce stress, burnout and/or compassion fatigue.
