Training for Clinicians & Organizations
CBT, DBT, and Motivational Interviewing training for mental health professionals and organizations who want to deliver better care and feel more confident doing it.
In-person and virtual training options are available for individual clinicians, private practices, schools, hospitals, and organizations.
Your clients are struggling. You want to help them more effectively.
Seeing your client suffering while struggling to make a change in their life is tough. Sitting with a teen who won’t engage, a parent at the end of their rope, or a young adult in distress takes a toll. And without the right tools, even the most committed clinician can feel stuck.
Maybe you’re working with clients whose anxiety keeps them from making progress. Maybe you’re seeing more self-harm, more emotional dysregulation, more families in crisis than you feel equipped to handle. Maybe you want to deepen your skills in proven approaches—not just learn about them, but use them with confidence.
At Behavioral Care Center of New Jersey, we train clinicians and organizations in the treatments that work, including CBT, DBT, and Motivational Interviewing, with the kind of hands-on instruction that translates directly into the therapy room.

MI Training for Your Organization
About The Training
Motivational Interviewing (MI) is a collaborative, compassionate style of communication that helps clients identify and strengthen their own motivation for change. Because MI integrates seamlessly into the therapies you already practice, it is one of the most immediately useful tools a clinician can add to their skill set.
MI is particularly powerful when working with clients who are ambivalent about change, resistant to treatment, or struggling to sustain progress. It strengthens engagement, reduces dropout, and improves outcomes across a wide range of clinical presentations.
Dr. Lander Miller is a member of the Motivational Interviewing Network of Trainers (MINT) and offers several routes through which your team can learn and deepen their MI skills.
