FREE MINI WORKSHOP
This January I will be offering a free mini workshop where I’ll be combining two of my areas of experience, two practices that have changed my life – Motivational interviewing and the Creative Arts.
I invite you to come along to my Mini Workshop – 2026 : Guided by Motivational Interviewing and Metaphors!
With a new calendar year ahead, we will draw on aspects of MI and Metaphors to think about ourselves and imagine what we hope for and need in our work.
Spots are limited so be sure to book your place!

Is 2026 your year to learn MI? Or perhaps it’s your year to circle back, refresh your skills or even apply MI in new areas of your work.
