Practical Strategies to Prevent Burnout

In this 1-hour self-paced course, we will explore Motivational Interviewing (MI) and Cognitive Behavioral Coaching (CBC) as it applies to preventing our own burnout! Join Motivational Interviewing Network of Trainer (MINT) members Jennifer Ollis Blomqvist & Hillary Logan as we examine how the expectations of helping professionals differ from our own capacity. When we feel overwhelmed by this difference, we often reach for strategies that increase stress-related symptoms leading to burnout. We will apply a CBC framework to discover how MI strategies support us in utilizing our own energy effectively to increase resilience and prevent burnout. CBC and MI strategies covered in this course also apply to your work with clients, so you will gain tools to apply to preventing your own burnout PLUS tools to apply with clients!
