Dr. Miller will be delivering two sessions during the 2024 The Health and Well-Being Coaching Conference
Saturday, June 8th, 2024— Eight Ways of Hoping (Keynote)
Hope has been a key component of motivational interviewing since first described in 1983, as hope predicts better outcomes in counseling and psychotherapy whether measured from the perspective of clients or clinicians. Hope is also a universal human experience and a component of mental health more generally. Research and scholarship on hope are blossoming in the fields of ecology, economics, medicine, nursing, philosophy, political science, psychology, sociology, and theology.
Yet what is hope?
Join Dr. Miller for an exploration into eight different kinds and ways of hoping— from probability, possibility, desire, and optimism, to trust, meaning, perseverance, and that elusive hope beyond hope.
Sunday, June 9th, 2024— Experiencing Motivational Interviewing (Workshop)
Motivational interviewing (MI) is now widely used in many helping professions to strengthen people's own motivation for and commitment to change. This workshop offers an opportunity to personally experience giving and receiving empathic understanding and explores how it can be useful both when maintaining neutrality and when facilitating directional change that a client desires.
Additionally, you will learn about and apply the psycholinguistics of change.
