I've been an independent consultant to the dental industry since the late 70's.  A psychologist friend who learned of what I do saw a similarity and introduced me to MI in the early 90's.  I'm a raving fan, creating others and believe there is a huge need for the skill development.  Through books, self teaching, and practice, I've been successfully providing coaching to dental practices as and independent consultant - delivering workshops and doing on site and distance coaching. 
 
Credibility is what I seek although I understand certification isn't currently available.  
 
Can you provide any guidance as to how to best achieve some degree of accreditation?  I am concerned with at least one stumbling block; I don't work with patients one on one as would a psychologist and so providing evidence of skill development for supervised MI would be difficult.  
 
Thank you so much

Forthcoming Workshops

Motivational Interviewing: Introduction & Update. 2 day workshop - 11th & 12th June 2012, Cardiff
Begin: 11.06.12, 09:00
End: 12.06.12, 17:00
This is a repeat one-off opportunity to learn about motivational interviewing (MI), and the latest developments, from its two co-founders, William R. Miller from Albuquerque, New Mexico & Stephen Rollnick from Cardiff, Wales. Professor Miller will return to Cardiff after a successful workshop in 2011. This will be of interest to both to newcomers and those more familiar with MI. A streaming system will be used to ensure that those relatively new to MI will get good opportunity to practice basic skills. It will provide: - Clarification about the common and unique elements of MI - A focus on client change language and how it guides the practice of MI - An update on theory and research - The presentation of a new 4-process framework for MI that allows for easier integration in diverse settings - Opportunity to practice core skills for evoking motivation to change For further details and application form, visit: www.misr2012.co.uk
