Additionally, the program will cover the four components of motivational interviewing, enabling providers to apply strategies that challenge biases and automatic thoughts in their patient engagements. By the end of the program, healthcare providers will be equipped with practical tools to foster more meaningful and supportive conversations with their patients.
