The Challenges and Rewards of Being Ambivalent with Allan Zuckoff NEW!

All sessions are live-hosted, screen-to-screen 1.5 hour Continuing Education Sessions (CES) with PRI Trainers. All sessions will be presented via Zoom. PRI is unable to award hours for sessions previously attended.  

Please note that participants are responsible for ensuring online PRI sessions and the number of hours earned fulfill your system's requirements. Credentialing requirements for online sessions stipulate all participants must (1) individually register, and (2) log into the online session on their own device to received credit/hours for attending. Learners who participate in an online session via shared login will not receive a certificate. Learners are also required to attend sessions in full for credit hours to be awarded.  Participants will receive a survey email after the session and will receive a certificate once the survey has been submitted. The link to the surveys are also available on the instructor site under "My Trainings." Note, participants must attend the entire session. 

PRI supports low risk driving choices. Therefore, we will remove anyone who is driving on a Zoom call hosted by our team. So as to not further distract, we will not chat or verbally ask questions first. You'll be able to join a different Zoom session, from a stationary place, at a later date. 

Description:

Ambivalence—feeling torn between competing options or directions—can torture us and serve as an obstacle to change. Yet being ambivalent is also, as Bill Miller (2022) wrote, the essence of being human, a source of integrity and a productive force for change. In this session we will explore both faces that ambivalence shows us. Together we will experience from the inside the challenges of being ambivalent. We will also discuss what research reveals about how ambivalence is resolved; the benefits of being ambivalent and the conditions under which they emerge; and how we can help make the rewards of ambivalence available to the people we work with.
