Clinic Booster: Better Behaviour Change and Engagement
This course will help you level-up your confidence and skills in supporting behaviour change and engagement in your clinical practice. These are important factors since they sit in the gap between what you know and do and the clinical outcome, may undermine therapeutic alliance, and may even be holding persons back in their recovery.
In this course you will review the importance of this “missing skillset”, cover principles of behaviour change and what drives change and engagement before reviewing simple clinical frameworks and tools you can apply straight away. Case examples brings the material to life, with regular reflection points for you to link the theory with your own clinical practice.
