MAR 2026 – How to use Motivational Interviewing in working with Domestic, Family, and Sexualised Violence

Ever had someone who is still ambivalent about whether violence is a serious issue in their families?

Ever felt that someone had just not done the work of creating family safety?

Finding the desire, reason, or need to change is critical for engaged work.

Join Ken McMaster for this two-day, in-depth, interactive Masterclass, where you will learn how to use Motivational Interviewing to drive better engagement and outcomes for participants of domestic, family and sexualised violence (DFSV) intervention services.

This Masterclass will equip you with the skills and knowledge to:

• Work with ambivalence in people who are mandated to programmes and family violence services
• Enhance engagement & retention in interventions and focus on the importance from a risk perspective
• Identify concrete change goals that relate to family wellbeing & family safety
• Form effective responses to discord when it emerges in the work
• Turn the volume up on positive change talk applicable to family violence
