At the heart of rehab therapy is often behavior change. That powerful lever is how therapy is able to deliver such long-term, life-altering results.

But let's be honest—it's also hard.

I know I, for one, have sat in a therapy office as a patient, pledging to do my home exercise program, and then totally failed to do it.

Motivational interviewing is an evidence-based approach that helps us get at the "why" behind what makes behavior change so difficult. It surfaces the real challenges so the therapist and patient can work through them together—and it gives us five specific skills to use in that process.

In today's one-hour course, we're joined by Sabina Kahn, PhD, EdD, OTD, MS, OTR/L. Sabina literally wrote the book on motivational interviewing for OT, PT, and SLP. Today, she'll share what she's learned, role-play MI in action, and help you start putting this process to work in your own practice.
