In today's episode I'm pleased to be joined again by MI Trainer, Jackie Webb and Consultant Social Worker Sharron Ricketts to continue our conversation about how MI can be used to support families and safeguard children.
In previous episodes we've discussed how MI can be used to support change - but what about those times when the journey of change isn't an option, and we need to deliver difficult messages and hold really challenging conversations?
Is MI still relevant in these situations?
Once again Jackie joins us to share some of her knowledge and wisdom on the subject, and Sharron shares with us some of the really challenging situations she's had to face when working with families in crisis, and how MI has guided her to gain positive outcomes for children.
If you've not heard any of the previous episodes in this MI series we recommend going back and listening to Parts 1-4 first, before listening to this episode.
