“You are not responsible for your client's (child's parent) change.. THEY are.”
Learn how to achieve more parent "BUY IN" during your sessions
The MI Boot Camp is a 5-Module online program for practitioners who are interested in providing parent training or supervising therapists and are already providing this training and are experiencing difficulties obtaining “buy in” from parents they work with or therapists they work with.

It is a method of improving effective communication and get more "Buy In" with your interventions

Promote behavior change

It is a collaborative, goal oriented style of communication

It is designed to evoke and strengthen motivation

I loved the MI training! I feel as though I have gained a better perspective on how to approach families and/or resistant team members. This has also helped me put the effort into breaking down WHAT barriers might be to missing data, lack of intervention follow-through, or lack of transparency across teams.

What our students are saying
"Thank you very much for allowing me to be a part of the MI training! It was really a pleasure, and I am a little sad that it already ended. You provided so much great information that I know will take time to get more comfortable and fluent with, and the boot camp felt like such a great place to start practicing these skills."
"Learning MI is a powerful tool to utilize during parent training and during difficult conversations. It has provided a strategy on how to approach parent training in a different way and allowed me to get a small buy-in concepts, implementing strategies, etc."

I’m a Licensed Psychologist, Doctoral level- Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA-D), Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with over 11 years working with families. I am the founder of two private practices; Crystal Minds New Beginning and Crystal Minds Psychological Services. I have mentored and supervised over 50 clinicians during my years of practice and have seen the struggles of miscommunication. I have learned firsthand through my own personal experience how certain communication approaches can either attract or push others away. Which is why I became passionate about integrating Motivational Interviewing (MI) into the Applied Behavior Analysis field. I may have been one of the first to integrate these two but I certainly don’t want to be the last!
