"Personal trainers and other health-related professionals must have formal skills training in an effective* method of motivational counselling. This is imperative to maximise the effect that the professional can have on their clients' behaviour and therefore their outcomes. Without this, at best professionals are leaving this essential element to chance, or worse, the professional might actually even act to reduce client motivation!".

*effective = there is proper scientific evidence to prove the method makes a difference to client motivation and compliance

"Motivational Counselling" is not about "giving information and advice"...it's not about telling people specifically "what" to do (ie exercise) or "how" to do it (what sorts of exercises to do and the kind of food to eat). This is the easy part....and professionals already have the right kind of qualifications to cover these prescriptions.
"Motivational Counselling" is the scientific art of interacting with clients in a very specific way which will maximize the likelihood that clients will develop the motivation to BE ABLE to carry out their programmes. Sometimes, as is the case with physical activity, clients already know WHAT they need to do and even HOW to do it, but the problem lies with motivation and confidence and not knowledge.

Sound familiar?

So, if you are ready to make a difference to the subtle skills make a difference to motivation (and increase your business profitability....)

Sign up now for the HFI Motivational Counselling (MCS)Workshop and the Certified Motivational Counsellor (CMC) Qualification
