One day training (6 hours)
What do you do when your client's goals differ from yours or those of your agency? This issue is particularly apparent in a family centered practice where you listen reflectively to your families and actively involve them in decision making. As you elicit goals for change, some parents may not reflect what you think is best for them. How you handle this sensitive situation can determine whether the parent continues to pursue change.
Based on the “Stages of Change” work of Prochaska & DiClemente, this workshop will discuss moving families through the first stages of change: Precontemplation, Contemplation through Preparation.
Upon completion of this workshop, participant will:
- Identify the stages of change
- Understand the first 2 stages of precontemplation and contemplation
- Find out how motivation and resistance apply to the stages
- Learn techniques to join together and create mutual goals
