Training, consulting, and practical solutions for professionals and organizations.
Whether you're looking to strengthen your team's communication skills, develop a new training program, or get support with a public health project, I provide customized training and consulting grounded in real-world experience.
Motivational Interviewing Training
Help your team have better conversations about change.
Motivational Interviewing (MI) is a collaborative approach to communication that helps people explore their own reasons for change. My MI trainings focus on practical skills that participants can use immediately, not simply learning the theory behind MI.
At its simplest, MI is a way to help clients talk themselves into their own change.
I offer introductory, intermediate, and advanced MI training, as well as customized workshops designed around the needs of your organization and staff.
Training can include:
• Introduction to Motivational Interviewing
• Intermediate and advanced MI skills
• OARS and core MI skills
• Recognizing and responding to change talk
• Engaging and focusing conversations
• Working with sustain talk and discord
• Practicing MI through realistic scenarios and role-play
• Applying MI to specific populations and settings (particularly HIV/HCV/STI testing and prevention)

Public Health Consulting
Practical expertise for public health organizations and programs.
With extensive experience in public health training, counseling, and education, I provide consulting support for organizations working to improve their programs, services, and workforce.
Depending on the project, this might include:
• Training strategy and development
• Curriculum development
• Staff development
• Public health education
• Program development
• Technical assistance
• Communication and client-engagement strategies
I bring a trainer's perspective to consulting projects: understand the goal, identify what people need to be able to do, and develop practical ways to get them there.
