I am the lead motivational interviewing trainer at the Oregon State Hospital, responsible for MI training and coaching at the Salem and Junction City campuses of the state psychiatric facility. I teach interactive, engaging classes tailored for participants with a wide variety of professional and educational backgrounds. Audiences have included psychiatrists, psychologists, social workers, therapists, direct care workers, dieticians, and managers. I have also trained lawyers in Deschutes County as part of an effort to support movement towards a more progressive culture in the district attorney's office.
